Reggie Jackson turns 80 on May 18th. He solidified himself as a legend in the 1977 World Series with the NY Yankees against the Dodgers when he went on a postseason blitzer, hitting three home runs on three consecutive pitches in Game 6. This legendary performance took place on October 18, 1977, at Yankee Stadium. He achieved the rare feat by hitting the first pitch he saw from three different Dodger pitchers: In the 4th inning: A first-pitch home run off starter Burt Hooton. In the 5th inning: A first-pitch, three-run home run off reliever Elias Sosa. In the 8th inning: A first-pitch home run into the center-field bleachers off reliever Charlie Hough.
