"This game, this series, this fraternal rivalry that dates to the Nixon Administration...it was decided in a small space just over and behind the center field wall in a ballpark not even a year old itself. That’s where big brother blocked the punch, and reminded little brother that he’ll always be bigger, and stronger, and older."
