In one of the final games of Bob Gibson's career, Cub Pete LaCock(the son of Hollywood Squares host Peter Marshall) hit a grand slam home run.

Reportedly, Gibson later said 'When I gave up a grand slam to Pete LaCock, I knew it was time to quit.'

Fast forward to an Oldtimers day some 10 years later.....Pete LaCock comes to bat with Bob Gibson on the mound....Gibson drilled LaCock with the first pitch

RIP Mr Gibson
