Earthquake series

 

On this date in 1989, minutes before Game Three of the World Series between the A's and the Giants, an earthquake hits the San Francisco Bay area. The game is postponed and the Series will resume 11 days later.

"If you would have moved that fast when you played, you wouldn't have hit into so many double plays." - Jack Buck to radio partner Johnny Bench after he ran to a spot underneath a steel grate during the quake
