Reggie Jackson




On this date in 1971 at the All Star Game in Detroit, Reggie Jackson hits a Dock Ellis pitch up into a light tower on the Tiger Stadium right field roof 520 feet from home plate.

"I got all of it."

The 1971 All Star game was easily one of the best in history.

As a youngster, I would look up at that light tower and think "How?"
