3/4 of this article is related to one specific play. It was certainly a memorable moment, but this article should be expanded to include more info on Bream's career.

Agreed. Sid played 9 seasons split between the Dodgers and Pirates prior to 1992. Perhaps someone more familiar with his career can enhance the current article.

A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with
the layout style guideline:
References all look stylistically fine, will take a while to check their veracity/reliability. My Review might take longer than 7 days.

Am working through the references, spot-checking the majority. The major problem I have found so far is that "vault.si.com" restricts the number of time the reader can access the Vault. So all those refs - #18, #24, #30, #42, #59, #63, #73, #74, #75, #78, #93 - will need to have that limited access in the Cite web template. Please refer to
Template:Cite web#Access indicators for url-holding parameters for the method to handle letting readers know about the restrictions on access.

Same basic issue with the three citations to New York Times articles - Ref # 41, #80, #87. All the Times refs need to be marked as "Subscription required".

LA Times ref - Ref # 50 - needs to have "subscription required" as well.

All the citations check out but the various access issues - "subscriptions required", etc. - need to be dealt with.

This is on hold, I am concerned about the infobox/main image. The original source, an eBay auction, has expired. It appears to possibly be from a Pirates publication or a possible baseball card. Since the auction has expired the claimed licensing is unverifiable.

Looking at the image, it is a black&white version of an image that also appears in a 1988 Panini Sticker set, see
this storefront link. The claimed copyright status by the uploader on Commons - that the copyright was not renewed? - is in doubt.

Removed the image. You may be right; I've never seen any other photos from that Panini sticker set used to illustrate Wikipedia articles.

This review is On Hold pending 1)the image copyright status and 2)the subscription required parameter for the Sports Illustrated refs, the New York Times refs, and the LA Times ref.
