[1] He was best known for hitting a game-tying 18th-inning home run in a game that began on July 4, 1985, and ended on July 5, against the New York Mets with two outs and an 0–2 count off Tom Gorman; this was the only home run of his twelve-season pro career (including nine in the majors).
Representing the tying run in the 19th inning, Camp struck out to end the game and was the losing pitcher.
The game started on July 4 at 7:05 pm, but due to extra innings and three long rain delays, it did not end until 3:55 am on July 5, the second latest any major league game has ever ended (after the last out, the night still wasn't over for people in Atlanta, as the Braves gave their fans a promised fireworks show at 4:00am, which drew a number of complaints from neighborhood residents).
[a] It was the only home run he ever hit in the majors and it occurred in his final season as a pitcher.
In September 2005, Camp was sentenced, along with four other people, including former Georgia State Representative Robin L. Williams, to a term in federal prison for conspiring to steal more than $2 million from the Community Mental Health Center in Augusta, Georgia.
