I could not resist putting up this Home Run Derby between Harmon Killebrew and Rocky Colavito. In this contest the two who had tied for the HR championship of the AL faced off.
It is preceded by Harmon taking the crown from Mickey Mantle -
And followed by a contest Harmon lost to Ken Boyer - a third baseman who belongs in the
Ken did not last long - his next challenge was Hank Aaron who took over the program.
It is so amazing to see these greats playing for $2000 - chump change today.
It is also fun to see Harmon, pre-Twins days in his Senator's uniform.
These are great players without the science of today. I love watching them.
Nostalgia - enjoy.
