Yes, I know of him. He was a great baseball player, from the 1960's. He was a tremendous home run hitter. He hit more than 40 home runs eight times. He played third base, for the Washington Senators, and that team eventually moved to Minnesota and became the Twins. He was always the best player on usually poor teams, although in Minnesota, he did get to the World Series once.. He played in the days before free agency. He was an All Star for the American League eleven times, and conducted himself with dignity and class. He was justifiably elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Your father is fortunate to have such a friend.

regrettably, Chipmaker, you're not from now on going to locate distinctive human beings right here with suggestions of Harmon Killebrew taking area in, considering he ended his occupation better than 35 years in the past, and the similar old age on Yahoo! solutions is about 19. I actual were a wide Twins fan all my existence, yet I under no circumstances were given to ascertain a Killebrew homer, considering i became born in 1980. yet he always appeared like a very astounding guy; he may sit down in on Twins sport telecasts now and back and it became always relaxing to hearken to from him. Killebrew's legacy lives on, in spite of the indisputable fact that, exceptionally in Minnesota. he's by technique of a procedures the crew's most suitable living house run hitter, and before the steroid era, i imagine he became #4 all time in MLB homers. he's the only member of the Twins to hit 40 or better homers in a season to today. And he may've had a international sequence call if no longer for that meddlesome youngster Sandy Koufax! The Killer is virtually seventy 5 years previous now, and by technique of any reckoning he's lived about as lengthy and able to a existence as any individual has a top to anticipate. Twins followers and baseball followers will be sorry to ascertain him lengthy gone, yet a minimum of he made the many of the time he had.
