Royals Hall of Fame - The Pine Tar Game

nobody@flickr.com (ChrisM70) — Sun, 19 Jul 2009 17:37:22 -0700

ChrisM70 posted a photo:

The famous "Pine Tar Incident" played on July 24, 1983, where George Brett was called out for using too much pine tar. The decision was appealed, and American League President Lee MacPhail reversed the decision, and decreed that the Yankees and Royals finish the game. On August 18th, the Royals returned to New York to resume the game with two outs in the top of the ninth, and the Royals held on for a 5-4 victory. Brett is not listed on the scorecard because he had been officially ejected from the game because of his legendary tantrum.
Notice that the card has been autographed by many of the members who played in the game.
