Original sentence: Despite Mookie Wilson's speed, it is questionable as to whether he would beaten the ball to first had it been fielded cleanly, considering Buckner played first base and ball was hit to first.McNamara once again sent Calvin Schiraldi to relieve Hurst despite Schiraldi's poor performance in Game 6 and despite the fact that Boyd was well-rested and ready to pitch (in fact, McNamara did not even have Boyd warm up), Schiraldi gave up a tie-breaking home run to Ray Knight, the first batter he faced, and ended up surrendering three runs while recording only a single out.With Game 7 delayed a day due to rain in New York, McNamara bumped originally scheduled starting pitcher Oil Can Boyd in favor of Bruce Hurst, who had been voted World Series Most Valuable Player before the conclusion of Game 6.Yet, perhaps the decision that McNamara will be most remembered for is his leaving first baseman Bill Buckner in the game in the 10th inning rather than removing him for a defensive substitute
