How Game 6 came back to life

by Bob Timmermann

As you may remember from earlier this week, Game 6 of the 1986 World Series came back to life in RBI Baseball version.

Jeff Passan of Yahoo! Sports talks to the creator, Conor Lastowka, about how it was done.

Apparently there was a lot of trial and error.

Hey Bob, is there any way you can link to the comments on the guy's blog? I think this should do it: http://tinyurl.com/nlpvo

Some samples might be fun to hear too...

Sampling wouldn't do it justice. It's 8:39 minutes long; that's a short timesink (unless you're on dialup).

Nono, I meant of some of the comments, like "This is the greatest thing on the entire internet", "This was cooler than when my first child was born", etc etc...they really all have to be read to be appreciated!
