Decisive

Tonight is the 52nd Game 7 in post-season history. There have been 51 previous leadoff Plate Appearances in Game Sevens, but only 50 game-ending Plate Appearances in Game Sevens. The missing game-ending PA is from the infamous 1926 Game 7 when Babe Ruth was caught stealing to end the season for the Yankees and give the Series to the Cardinals. Bob Meusel, at the plate at the time, is not credited with a PA.
