1960: Bobby Thompson being congratulated after hitting a HR @ Baltimore on May 29th?

Pretty good guess.

It was Tony Conigliaro, after hitting a home run on Opening Day in his first game back since being beaned 2 seasons earlier.

The beaning occurred in August of 1967, and this Opening Day game was in April of 1969.

The home run was in the top of the 10th inning, and it gave the Red Sox a 2-run lead.

Frank Robinson tied the game with a 2-run home run of his own in the bottom of the 10th inning before the Red Sox finally won it with a sacrifice fly in the top of the 12th.
