Here is the story of that game. He hit that at about 3:30am lol Dykstra was probably so dejected because he knew the Atlanta strip clubs closed at 5am and he wouldn't be able to make it in time. lol

I remember watching the Braves while keeping book to the Bob Horner, Pasquel Perez, Glen Hubbard, Dale Murphy, Zane Smith, etc teams. Pretty sure they lost 100 games a year, but the Superstation was great to watch them. Ted Turner was a genius.

I started watching in 1982 when they won the division. All the guys you mention where on that team. Yes, Ted was a visionary. Too bad CNN has devolved into what it has become in recent years. It was a great idea and a great network for well over 30 years.
