Game Six of ‘86 WS - RBI Baseball Style

RBI Baseball was a groundbreaking baseball video game for it’s time. The first game to be fully licensed by MLB and the Players Association, RBI was the scene of many epic battles between my friends and I. Just the other day the Croz and I were talking about how dominant the Red Sox were in the game: Clemens was always the top choice for starter, and it seemed like every guy in the lineup was a 8-bit superstar (Rice, Boggs, Baylor, Evans as starters, with Henderson and Burks off the bench).

Anyway, what this guy has done is amazing: he’s accurately (as accurately as possible with a ~20-year-old video game) reproduced the 10th inning of Game 6 of the 1986 World Series (the Buckner game) using RBI baseball video and Vin Scully’s original call. Sweet stuff.

I just can’t imagine 1) how long this took and 2) how he didn’t go insane from the music.
