Brett absolutely DESTROYED the Yankees in the 80’s

One of the greatest clutch hitters in baseball history.

One year he hit .390. Was over .400 for most of the season.

Legend has it the ball he hit off Gossage in the ‘80 ALCS has still not landed!

Something just splattered my kitchen window in North Carolina. A 1980 baseball with spots of pine tar on it and tobacco stains. The ball hit the fridge and bounced onto the stove into an dirty frying pan. So the ball has fried egg stains.

Gossage was basically unhittable then, but Brett put his heat in the upper deck. I'll never forget that blast.

I grew up in Detroit. Whenever I was a kid and my dad took me to Tiger games, it seemed like it was always against the Royals. Found out later that my dad was a huge George Brett fan.

Looking at these highlights he sure wore out the Jays and the Yankees.

The reason why a majority of these clips are against the jays the Yankees the Phillies and cardinals - is because most of these are from the postseason - and those were the teams that he played in the postseason - there probably isn’t much footage from the regular season from that era available today - it’s a testament to how great a player he was that he was such a big time performer in the postseason - hes probably semi underrated with the average baseball fan - probably a top 20 all time player

Unfortunately, he was very injury prone. As great as his numbers were, you can’t help but wonder how much better they might have been had he not missed so much time on the DL.

He played a lot of games on astro turf. It was very common in the 80s for players to take the 10th game off.
