Even though its listed as a night game I think watched this homer. Then manager Giants; Joe Altobelli pinch-hit for Johnni LeMaster-thankfully-with McCovey. Then Pirates manger Chuck Tanner pulled right hander Bruce Kison with the lefty Grant Jackson. Jackson threw a breaking pitch to McCovey who was fooled and even though he hit the ball with one hand he was still was able to get enough power behind his swing to knock the ball over the wall. He was pretty good. :)
Even when the record was broken I still thought that it was a little obscure I mean most career homers by a National League lefty.
The card itself looks like it was taken during Spring Training against the Padres.
