I was always under the impression that the Red Sox were ahead when Buckner flubbed the ground ball, and that had he fielded it properly it would've been the end of game & series. But the score was actually tied? Fuck that shit, he's not the one who choked.
Not by a longshot. There was no guarantee they'd win that game, PLUS they had another game to get it back. Moreover, statistically, Buckner was probably the team's MVP for the series. They sold that poor bastard out.
