It reminded me of something

This is how the first game at the new Washington ballpark ended:

This is how the first game at Coors Field ended.
Gleaming, new Coors Field hosted its first regular-season game on April 26, 1995, and Dante Bichette ended the night by leaving a glorious impression that still hasn't faded. The place opened with a wild game that ushered in a season of high-scoring, exciting and successful baseball, and Bichette punctuated it with a 14th-inning, three-run homer to beat the Mets.
There is a video link at the story. I'd love to embed it here, but MLB.com isn't that enlightened yet. I'm surprised Awful Announcing has the video of the Nationals game still available.
