Yankees Baseball Card Trivia at Noon – Walk-Off World Series Heroes

ProfRobert here guest curating again.

A walk-off hit is one of the most exciting plays in baseball, even more so when it comes in a World Series.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
