The shot heard around the world was at Lexington
Don Mueller was on 3rd and Whitey Lockman was on 2nd.
It is called that because it was the shot that started the American Revolution, and that was a big deal. No one is sure who fired it. No one knows if it was one of the British soldiers or if it was a colonist.
I would call it a "space-bound herd of dairy cows."
The shot heard around the world was the first shot at the battle of Bunker Hill in 1776.
The "shot heard around the world" was the onset of the American Revolution.
