This is the story of one of the most unusual seasons in the history of baseball. In 1964 one of the longest dynasties in any sport came to end. Another team's ascendancy in the sport was beginning. On the final day of the season, there could have been a three-way tie for the title. The managers of both of the World Series teams caught wind of efforts to dump them at the end of the season. It was an era of Hall of Fame players and fierce competitors. Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris, Bobby Richardson and Whitey Ford were icons of the sport. Bob Gibson, Ken Boyer, Bill White and Lou Brock had a chance to knock them off for a World Championship. The pennant races as seen through the eyes of a 17-year-old fan also involved one of the biggest collapses at the end of a season in any sport.
