In 1986, Bill Buckner of the Boston Red Sox made one of the most famous errors in baseball history. With his team about to claim their first victory for 68 years, Buckner let the ball slip between his legs on a crucial play. The misfield spelled defeat for the Red Sox and convinced many fans that their team was cursed. Will Yates talks to veteran Boston Globe sports reporter Dan Shaughnessy and to a Boston fan. The programme is a Whistledown Production. PHOTO: Bill Buckner (Getty Images).
