Brett remembers Pine Tar Game and its legend
Hall of Famer George Brett, now interim Royals hitting coach, recalls the 1983 Pine Tar Game near Yankee Stadium. He hit a two run homer that was nullified for excess pine tar, later overturned, and the Royals won 5 4. Brett donated the bat to Cooperstown and still hears about the incident.
