Miley BB CD 1965 World Series Game 7
Called by Joe Garagiola and Byrum Saam

Sandy Koufax follows up his Game 5 shutout with another one, this time a 3-hitter, to give the World Series to Los Angeles.  The Twins' only real chance is snuffed out when Jim Gilliam makes a spectacular grab of Zoilo Versalles' shot down the 3rd base line.
