The Sandberg Game on DVD
When Two-Day Shipping isn't fast enough
I saw this advertised on Cubs.com and had to click on the link. The MLB shop wants $80, but Amazon is selling it for $44.
Mine has been ordered and I'm counting down the minutes until it comes... I'm so jazzed. I've never seen "The Sandberg Game."
The DVD includes full game telecasts of:
- "The Sandberg Game" June 23, 1984 in which Ryne Sandberg hit two home runs off of Bruce Sutter
- Kerry Wood's 20 strikeout game
- Game #1 of the 1984 NLCS in which the Cubs won 13-0 over the Padres, and Rick Sutcliffe hit a homerun.
- Game #2 of the 1989 NLDS. The Cubs beat the Giants and Mark Grace went 3 for 4 with 4 RBI
- Greg Maddux's 300th win.
- Sammy Sosa's home runs #61 and 62 in 1998.
- Andre Dawson hitting three home runs in 1987.
- Derrek Lee going 5 for 5 in 2005 with a homer and 4 RBI.
Amazon also mentions that there are some bonus features in addition to the eight games above.
