Game Six of the World Series belonged to him as he made an utterly spectacular grab of a ball smashed by DiMaggio, helping preserve the victory and sending the Series to a Game 7. Condition of photo is EX+ and comes with original wire caption on the back. One of the most famous catches in the history of the game.
