1971 World Series Game 3 Ticket Stub PSA 4 (MK) Robertson missed bunt sign HR

Description: Ticket Stub from Game 3 of the 1970 World Series recently graded VG-EX 4 (MK) by PSA. There is writing on the front of the ticket and there appears to be print on the back. Combined shipping is available. Size of the PSA holder is approximately 7 1/4" by 4 1/4" The game is best known for Pittsburgh's Bob Robertson missing a bunt sign in the 7th inning but hitting a 3-run HR to give the Pirates a 5-1 lead. With the Series shifting to Three Rivers Stadium and with Steve Blass available, the Pirates got back into it. Roberto Clemente's groundout with runners on second and third in the first put them up 1–0. Manny Sanguillén hit a leadoff double in the sixth and scored on Jose Pagan's single to make it 2–0 Pirates. Steve Blass pitched a complete game, allowing only three hits and one run (on a Frank Robinson home run in the seventh) and striking out eight. The big blow on offense was struck by Bob Robertson, who slammed a three-run home run in the seventh inning off starter Mike Cuellar after missing the bunt sign. Manager Danny Murtaugh issued the sign to Robertson, who had no sacrifice bunts the entire season. Television replays showed Roberto Clemente, who was on second base, appearing to call a timeout, but Cuellar was already in his windup at the time. Blass was sitting next to Murtaugh in the dugout at the time, and told the Pirate manager: "If you fine him (Robertson, for missing the bunt sign), I'll pay." Murtaugh didn't.
