The June 4, 1974, night game between the Texas Rangers and the Cleveland Indians was one for the record books. Whether because of the cheap beer, the hot weather, college students home for summer, or the full moon, the things that made the game memorable had little to do with playing baseball. It is history that deserves to be remembered.
