MY BIGGEST THRILL IN BASEBALL by Hank Majeski. My biggest thrill came to me in the past World Series, the Indians against the New York Giants. In the 4th game, I was sent in to pinch-hit for the pitcher in the 5th inning, with two men on base. I hit a home run. As you know, the Giants beat us four straight, and my home run did not play a "Merriwell" part. However, though it may have been only a "personal achievement," it was a tremendous thrill, since this was the only World Series I've ever been in.
