Great video of a leader that played with fire.

You are amazing. Seriously, you have a tremendous gift for producing these videos. BRAVO!

Can I make one minor complaint? I would have liked to seen a video clip (maybe one doesn't easily exist on the net) from the day he got to .400 for the first time in 1980. He went 4-4 that day (Hot Sunday afternoon) and got a double in his last AB. That was one of the more electrifying moments I can ever remember as a patron in, then, Royals Stadium. In 1980, George probably could have murdered the Mayor in broad daylight in downtown KC and would have been acquitted ;)

Other than that, dude, you are awesome. Thanks for the hard work you put into these videos!

I was going to suggest that as well, but before I posted I did a quick Google search. I found the picture of him at second with his arms raised, but no scoreboard in the background. I could not find a picture or video anywhere of that day that has the scoreboard with his batting average in it.

Yep, you are correct. I assumed that I am just not very good accessing info on the net as others:)

That day was one of the best days I ever spent at Royals Stadium as a kid.

Again, great vid, chief4life!

Brett was the best hitter I have ever seen. Big hits in big moments. He was a Yankee killer-so much so they had to try the pine tar trick to win a game. Still a lame move and a huge black mark on Yankee history.

Great video. Brings back a lot of memories of games I got to watch and listen on 580 am radio with my Dad. One that comes to mind, it was in George's twilight of his career and one of the last games I watched with my Dad before he passed away. They were playing in Fenway and were down 1 run. We had been listening to that douche McCarver rail on GB being too old and needing to retire all game long. GB was like 1 for 3 with a single I think when he came to bat with a man on second. McCarver is railing on GB again and BAM! GB hits a monster 400+ foot homer to dead center which turned out to be the game winner. McCarver was speechless and my Dad said "that's the best that a**hole has sounded all afternoon"...lol

Brett had some bad late years, but I think he went out at a good time. I wish there were other videos of his home runs. I have seen the same 20 500 times.

Decent vid. It needs Fred Whites radio call on the 1980 Gossage HR.

I wish too same with Bo when u try and find old video it's hard not to see the same ones over and over because that is all that is out there. If I had old footage or if someone else does please share. I would love to see it.

Brett bursting out of the dugout after the incident is one of the most iconic scenes in baseball history, IMO.
