We Will See Him on TV Every Day This Week - Geoge Brett Got Injured How?

Sure Brett could have been injured when he went berserk and charged out of the dugout in the pine tar game.  I'm also not talking about him becoming one of the most famous people with hemorrhoids.

Brett got injured running from the kitchen to the TV.  What was his hurry?  He wanted to see Bill Buckner bat.  Why?  In 1983 Buckner was a Cub who had already had seven seasons with an average about .300.  He played until 1990 without hitting .300 again.  He had 2,715 career hits, which is more than many Hall of Famers, but unfortunately he's not known for any of those hits.

Brett hit .300 11 times on his way to a .305 career average.  He hit .310 in 1983, but maybe it could have been higher had he not broken a toe.

Is this really how it happened?  I'll do some research on that one.
