The 1980 LCS with Houston was one of the best ever. Every game went extra innings, and McGraw was awesome. I was living in Houston at the time, a huge baseball fan.
Pete Rose introduced Astro's backup catcher Bruce Bochy to retirement in a play at the plate in one game. He was a tough sonofabitch.
Of course, the Astros lost. It was like McGraw and the Phillies took a knife and cut out my heart....
