More than gracious, St. Louis was as fretful as Kansas City for the well-being of Third Baseman George Brett when, near the finish of the fifth game, he went sliding after a foul ball...
...claim the last out as his rightful province. "The higher we think of ourselves," said Quisenberry quietly, "the more chances we have of being disappointed in ourselves."
