Pitcher Todd Worrell of the St. Louis Cardinals wound up and released the pitch ? low, at the thighs. Iorg whipped around his lumberjack-like arms. The bat met the ball. The bat broke. Radio announcer Denny Matthews suddenly raised his voice: \"Little looping fly ball...\" And with that, the Kansas City Royals were on the way to their one and only World Series championship.
