Last time it was gum winning, 8-4. Will cake do better on Thanksgiving?
Looks like these two photos are from the same shoot. The Hostess photo is a longer shot, showing Brett in a bit of a crouch as he poses in his stance. Topps went for the tighter crop, and as you can see from the angle of the dugout, he was probably crouching in this photo and Topps aligned the photo so he appeared more straight-up.
Arguably the greatest third baseman of all time and definitively the greatest Kansas City Royal of all time, Hall-of-Famer George Brett is one of four players all-time to hit .300 with 3000 hits and 300 home runs, the only player to win a batting title in three decades, and a 13-time all-star. Probably his most well-known accomplishment was his run at a .400 batting average in 1980. He finished at .390, led the league in both on-base and slugging percentages, and was the only player to have an OPS+ higher than 200 (203) between 1970 and 1991. After his 21-year playing with the Royals, he has just completed his 31st year as the team's VP of Baseball Operations. 52 straight years with one team!
Hostess.
