Description: SIGNED BASEBALL BY DAVE POPE WHO HAS THE DISTINCTION OF BEING KNOWN FOR THE CONTRAST FOOTAGE FROM GAME 1 OF 1954 WORLD SERIES Although his major league career was not lengthy, Pope has a place in the photo and film archive for Game 1 of the 54 WS , as part of a play which contrasted with Mays Catch . In the top of the 8th inning, Vic Wertz of Cleveland had hit a deep fly ball (400 or more feet) to center field which had been pulled down by Mays for a very long out. In the last of the 10th inning, Giants' pinch-hitter & 54 ws MVP Dusty Rhodes hit a shallow fly ball, well under 300 feet, toward the cozy right field area of the Polo grounds. Pope, who had been brought into the game in the late innings, ran over and leaped as high as he could but was a couple of feet short of being able to catch Rhodes' fly ball, which landed in the first row of seats for the game-winning home run.
