Lines: 13 I must admit that I have about as much regard for George Brett as a person as I do for Billy Martin, but I'd love to have Brett on my team! As for the "pine-tar-home-run-bat" incident, I don't think a rule for any sport should be so vague that it takes a league president and a week to make a ruling. Hope that the rule "to prevent ball discoloring" doesn't rob anyone else of a potential game winning homer. Hard to feel sorry for Brett and it seems its always the #!%& Yankees!
