93,103 fans came to the Los Angeles Coliseum to watch an exhibition between the Dodgers and Yankees and pay tribute to Dodgers catcher Roy Campanella.
Campanella, who won three NL MVP awards in a five-year span, was paralyzed in January of 1958 in a car accident.
The event was a fundraiser for the star and, at the time, the most attended MLB game in history.
Between the fifth and sixth innings, the stadium lights were turned off and fans lit candles and matches.
“Campy” was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1969 and is still considered one of the greatest catchers of all time.
