Earl Wilson's home run was to the upper deck in left field. I was at the game and I had perfect line of site on the ball as I was sitting in the lower deck and could look straight down the 3rd base line. It was 12:58am when he hit it. Miller threw him a change up. It was not a fly ball but a line drive that was still rising when it landed.
