Why this game is here
- The winner-take-all finale of the 1947 World Series (game 7)
Selection is threshold-earned: a game qualifies only by structural singularity (a tied game, or the winner-take-all finale of a series that went the distance) or by holding an outright covered-era record. Fame carries no weight.
