I was there 27 years ago tonight when John Valentin recorded an unassisted triple play. He was so nonchalant that the photo I got of the play was not even worth putting up on this blog (plus it would take me hours to find it :-).  I did, however, snap this photo in 1995 at the request of then Boston Herald baseball guru and all-around nice guy Steve Buckley. I dug up this photo on the occasion of  the 27th anniversary of  John Valentin’s unassisted triple play, July 8, 1994. From left, Johnny Pesky, Rico Petrocelli, Rick Burleson, Spike Owen and John Valentin.
