This is a great addition to your Bill Buckner and Boston Red Sox memorabilia. This autographed baseball will look great in your game room at home or in the office, signed by one of the most famous players in World Series history.

Buckner was a key member of the team in 1986. He hit 8 home runs that September, with 22 RBIs and a .340 average, missing only three games. He drove in over 100 runs for the season. In Game 5 of the Championship Series when the Red Sox faced elimination, he singled to start their ninth inning rally, which was capped off by Dave Henderson's famous home run.

On October 25, 1986, the Boston Red Sox faced the New York Mets in Game 6 of the World Series. Boston led the best-of-7 series 3 games to 2, and had a two-run lead with two outs in the bottom of the tenth inning. Instead of defensive replacement Dave Stapleton playing 1B for Buckner and his hurting knees (the 1986 post-season pattern for Red Sox when leading in the last inning), Boston manager John McNamara had Buckner take the field in the bottom of that tenth inning. Subsequently, New York came back to tie the game with three straight singles off Calvin Schiraldi and a wild pitch by pitcher Bob Stanley. Mookie Wilson fouled off several pitches before hitting a ground ball to Buckner at first base. The ball rolled under Buckner's glove, through his legs, and into right field, allowing Ray Knight to score the winning run, forcing a seventh game, which the Mets won. The error capped off a poor Game 6 performance; Buckner went 0-for-5, with runners on base, in all five at-bats.
