I love this channel. I'm 62 and been a royals fan my entire life. We need Ned, Frank, Gordo on here. Watching George play is something younger people will never get to experience. It honestly was played the way it was meant to be played.
We need a Salvy & Bobby Witt Jr on the same show talking about the turn around and spark from last year to this year...maybe get Lugo,Ragens, Singer to join in also!
As I child growing up in KC I loved George Brett. I’m an older man and I still love George Brett. The most feared hitter in baseball for years. The only player to win a batting title in 3 different decades.
I grew up idolizing George. Always wore number 5 since I was in T-ball. As a 50 year old lifetime Royals fan I am glad to see the Royals having success again after the 14 and 15 seasons and it looks like Bobby Baseball may be the next in line to be the man all the kids look up to like I did George!
George Brett should be the next Royals manager!!! If anything his stories would keep everyone so loose and his love for the game is honorable. I met George once and did get his autograph. I love him. Thanks for winning the '85 World Series!!
Not a Royals fan but as a baseball fan, how can you not appreciate George Brett. He was in his prime when I fell in love with baseball and guys like him, Gwynn, Carew and others of that ilk, they were the ones who made a little kid like me be fascinated with the science of hitting a Major League pitcher. Don’t get me wrong, I’m equally fascinated by superior pitching & pitchers too. But there was always something about players who hit for average rather than power. I hope Bobby Witt pays close attention to Brett’s advice. Kid has HOF written all over him.
Royals fan since the early 70s. George Brett my favorite of all time. Absolute legend. Spent many a summer replicating his stance and hitting style in wiffle ball…lol. Love his view on baseball of today. Agree with him totally. Eric and Mous. Loved watching you play. Great podcast. Keep up the great work
@@DigginDeepPodcast As a lifelong Royals fan, Lo-Caine, Dyson, Yost or Ben Zobrist. As a baseball fan, I know Moose spent time on the Angels so Trout would be interesting. Just a few off the top of my head.
@DigginDeepPodcast Mike trout would be a good guest hell of a ball player just unlucky with injury be nice to see his perspective on his game trials and tribulations
MR. ROYAL HIMSELF! MY ALL TIME FAVORITE ROYAL! GEORGE BRETT! JUST ONCE I WOULD LOVE TO MEET HIM! I have watched this one several times just I just love what you all are doing. I purchased tickets for StL vs. KC next month so my son and I can enjoy the game together! And we are right behind the Royals dugout! It should be a good time!
I saw George Brett, in person, play as a rookie. Saw him several more times. He played hard. Not flamboyant, but he played hard. Watchin him hit, he was one of the few that you just always felt, this pitcher is at a disadvantage. I never enjoyed watching anyone hit more than I loved watchin George. So much respect for the way he played the game.
Went to the MLB ASG fan fest hosted by the San Diego Padres in 2016. Won a George Brett signed baseball. A couple days later at the ASG Hos and Salvy went back to back with homers. They know the big stage. 👏🏻💙
George Brett was my Hero growing up. I played baseball thru HS and I always wore #5. I am from Texas and a Rangers fan, but George Brett made me a Royals fan as well back in the day and I still follow the Royals, just not as closely. But Thanks George for being one of the best to ever play
This podcast flowed very well, guys. I’ve never met George, but always enjoy listening to his interviews. Being born in 1975 and growing up northeast of KC, George was my first favorite MLB player. I loved how he played the game with passion and grit. Super clutch when it came down to being in a position to win the game. Once George retired, there were a lot of talented players that were on the Royals roster. It was a pleasure to see Moose and Hoz (along with several others) come up and help turn the Royals into winners again. Thanks to all involved in both of KC’s world championships.
I wrote Mr. Brett in 1989 as part of a class project. He was my favorite athlete/role model when I was a kid. He actually wrote me back and sent a signed autograph picture. I live in the Quad-Cities Illinois now, but I will forever be a Kansas City sports fan. I wore #5 in every sport I ever played. Thank you, Sir, for setting a high standard. God Bless.
If I ever could meet George Brett I would tell him my grandma would have adopted him. She had a dog named Brett, and even had a white cat named Frank after Frank White. She was a huge Royals fan.
Loved hearing the stories about Ace.. I miss the fire and intensity that he brought . Was truly electric to watch. Brett complaining about the lack of bench clearings is also classic! Salvy wanted a piece when Witt was hit when trying to get the cycle and I know Ventura would've had a rib ball loaded up.
What a great show! Lifelong Padres fan, but who doesn't love listening to such great stories from a great story teller. And what an awesome ball player.
As Brett Pener's brother in law it makes me happy to see all you guys give love to the clubbies. Thanks, Hoz, by the way, for the shout-out at my wedding. It was a huge hit. I got two boys of my own now as well. Stay safe, boys. Outstanding episode. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
Been a life long Royals fan, my first attended game was Aug of 1977. An 8-0 win over Toronto. Love the Royals. I also had the pleasure of playing college ball for former Royals coach Rick Mathews. Great guy so many stories.
Great pod cast.. Met George in 1990 as a minor league umpire at Royals spring traing, and he was generally interested in how things were going in the minor leagues...thanks GB a memory I will never forget! ##5KCRoyals
If you were a kid in the 70’s and a teen in the 80’s you were a Brett fan. What a time, my 2 favorite 3rd baseman ever playing in opposite leagues, Brett in KC and Mike Schmidt in Philly.
As a Indians fan I had great respect for George Brett's game. In little league my favorite two players were Brett and Pete Rose. There hard nose play giving 110% all the time!! No quit in these guys. Also wore #5 in little league in the early mid 80's
Nice 👍 I’ve got a 2012 Spring Training HR Ball from Hoss that He signed for Me on the way out during the 6th or 7th inning He was there signing for a group of about a half dozen 7-9yo down the LF line and I came up & asked Him “ Hey Hoss , Ya think You could sign this ball You hit out for Me ? “ No words , just grabbed it & signed it I said Thank Ya Sir & that was that Now I have an Hoss HR Ball signed by Eric Not often You get the chance to have the Guy who hit it out also sign it for Ya. Pretty Dope Thanks again Brotha ✌️ 🙏
As a Phillies fan I just wanted to say I respect the heck of Brett. What a great player & always with a greater story. Plus the benefit of other great Royals makes this very entertaining. Always will fondly remember the Royals recent World Series win. Epic stuff from Hosmer's boys.
Fortunate to be a very small part of George, Eric and Mikes lives during spring training during 2015, 2016 and a few years after. All three exceptionally nice, very respectful and incredibly funny. Consider myself lucky to have driven them around on the golf carts as one of the off duty police officers. Best to all of them.
When he played rookie ball in Billings, George & 4 other guys would go to the Safeway store across the street from the ballpark and chip in for a loaf of bread & a pack of bologna and that was their post game meal
I drove in a cab in 95' with George Brett in Chicago with Mcrae and Howard. We went to Wrigley Field. He had never been there. Like a kid in a candy store. Cool guy.
something to consider is kansas city has five sailboat racing clubs. And far as being a father time is your best friend. The game of fatherhood is played on a 5 inch field between your ears.. really enjoy the podcast nice job. GEORGE have not seen him in years. Appreciate you guys for sharing and digging deep..
What a great interview. Hosts did an excellent job of extracting stories from George. Didn't think I'd listen to the whole podcast but loved every minute.
As a native New Yorker and lifelong Yankee fan I was 9 in 1977 10 in 1978 and remember ALCS against K.C. epic... Also remember Greig Nettles kicking George s ass😂😂😂😂
George's brother was my landlord in Redondo Beach, 1989-90. His brother Ken was my bartender at P.J. Brett's. George was there every night in the off-season. It was awesome. I knew his dad, rough dude. Kemer was a great gentleman. Man, were there some gorgeous ladies there. Bud Biancalana is one of my best friends. George told me he would not talk to me because I was a USC Trojan and Rod Dedeaux offered a ride to somebody else.
This is the best! Could listen to these guys talk about life and the game forever. Also love hearing about the game from different generations. Thanks for episode!
George Brett is such a cool dude. Back in the day, maybe 2003/2004 my little league team played his sons, and they were down players so someone on our team played for his so we could play, and as a thank you, George gave all of us a signed card of his
George is a treasure, and I'm certain it was a load off his shoulders to not have to be Mr. Royals any more once the 2014/2015 seasons happened and the WS came back to KC. Cheers boys.
I enjoyed this greatly gentlemen. My buddy recommended this late last night. And released near the anniversary of the “pine tar” game! Many of us remember when and where we were that day. Looking forward to your next conversations. Thank you kindly fellas!
@@DigginDeepPodcast sorry for the late reply, but if you’re able to make it happen, as suggested, I saw The Royal the other night and I’d love to see and hear a conversation with Willie Mays Aikens following up on his life since the end of the movie. I recommend the film highly - just adding a vote to the list of prospective guests. Thank you kindly and I will see you soon again. Take care and be well.
And I have to go ahead and add that I’ve been a grown-up for decades and The Royal stirred up an emotional response and it will in others if they have a family (and kids too). It’s a well told and acted story.
I really enjoyed this. It was really neat to hear the stories and all of the conversation. I had the pleasure of meeting George Brett at his house probably a little over 10 years ago. I won’t get into the story why I was there briefly. But it was truly a pleasure. And then when he found out that I played softball in college with Whitey Herzog’s son Jim and we worked next to each other, it was gold.
My first time listening and I will be back! Great show!! George was my hero growing up and a great story teller, so that's hard to top, but Hos does a great job.
I served George at a charity event one time. Dude was just telling stories all night. Night comes to an end, he grabs me knowing the bar is closed and asks me to grab him a coors for the road. When George Brett asks you for a roadie, you give him the roadie
I was wondering what you two were up to! Nice show gentlemen...cool to see your perspectives, and a sneak peek into the clubhouse. That '85/'15 reunion sounds pretty neat, have fun. Thanks for the show
I remember Moose hitting a lot of pitches to the opposite field all the sudden in whatever year that was, he really made some changes in his approach and you could tell. He really became a solid #2 hitter for a while
I would LOVE to see, Duffy,Lo Cain,JGuts and Gordo!!!! There are more but those are the ones on the top of my head! Love the podcast and this episode so much!!! 💙
Guys. Great show again. The information shared by your guests and yourselves is priceless👍🏼 I coach high school ball and teach hitting. I learned via Matt Nokes. He’s a great dude and knows hitting like no one else I’ve seen. George hit on so many things that Matt & I teach. Unfortunately today’s players don’t want to hear it and all believe swinging up on the ball is how pros do it. You guys are lucky to have had George as your hitting coach for a minute while you played. Try to find a way to give that knowledge to some of these young guys coming up. It’s not easy to get them to ‘buy in’ but if you can connect with even one player, you’ve paid it forward👍🏼 Keep up the great content 👍🏼 Best show out there guys👍🏼
we appreciate your comment and feedback! Glad to have you here, coach 👊 one of our ways to pass that on to the young guys is you! We love having coaches and educators here, welcome to the club!
@@DigginDeepPodcast I'm an older Royals fan and I hate to pick an ex-royal, but John Mayberry or Willie Wilson would be pretty good. I've heard Jaime Bluma and he's a pretty good interview. That's a tough one, there are so many.

Joe Posnanski would be a great guest with amazing stories. Just read his Baseball 100 & The Soul of Baseball. Amazing.
You should try and get Bo Jackson
I could listen to George’s stories for hours on end.
us too. definitely need a round two with Uncle George
Three Royals WS champs talking baseball, made my day.
thanks for watching 🙌
Biggest douche bag in Royals history. He's not respected by many locally.
The roundtable with George, Bret Saberhagen, Johnny Bench, and Kevin Costner on the Special Edition of 'Field of Dreams' DVD is worth a watch.
As I child growing up in KC I loved George Brett. I’m an older man and I still love George Brett. The most feared hitter in baseball for years. The only player to win a batting title in 3 different decades.

3 Royals that brought so much joy in my life. Thanks and love you boys. Forever Blue!
thanks for watching Eric!
George Brett should be the next Royals manager!!! If anything his stories would keep everyone so loose and his love for the game is honorable. I met George once and did get his autograph. I love him. Thanks for winning the '85 World Series!!
that would be EPIC.
That’s been done. GB, great player, but he’s goofy af and it doesn’t work as a manager.
I'm 56 and you men have brought me so much joy and tears, today I'm crying with laughter; thank you gentlemen.

Love seeing Brett talking about bench clearing situations. Perfect timing for this during the D-backs series.
agreed. everyone freacking out cuz royals hit them back, its baseball

summer wiffle ball replicating stances = core memories. great to have you hear watching along, thank you!
Mine was Eddie Murray. Did you also have a massive wad of chewing tobacco in your cheek? 🤮
@@BigAl444 Big League Chew! 🤣
And now we know that stance was due to the hemi's lol

Brett has been my favorite player since I was 4 years old. I have almost ever card of his. That crap story is hilarious!!
I used to mimic Brett’s batting stance growing up! Watched religiously from 2012-2015 and it was a glorious time to be a royals fan! Love yall

Royals vs Yankees was a classic rivalry. Those were the days, telling mom I didn't feel well so I could stay home and watch the playoff game on ABC.
That was REALLY enjoyable! Been a fan of GB's since I was a kid but feel like I actually now him now. Great show guys!
thank you! glad to have you here!

🙏 thank you for watching and commenting.
Nice 👍
I’ve got a 2012 Spring Training HR Ball from Hoss that He signed for Me on the way out during the 6th or 7th inning
He was there signing for a group of about a half dozen 7-9yo down the LF line and I came up & asked Him
“ Hey Hoss , Ya think You could sign this ball You hit out for Me ? “
No words , just grabbed it & signed it
I said Thank Ya Sir
& that was that
Now I have an Hoss HR Ball signed by Eric
Not often You get the chance to have the Guy who hit it out also sign it for Ya.
Pretty Dope
Thanks again Brotha ✌️ 🙏

Just found the podcast recently, as a life long Royals fan what a treasure. Fantastic stuff Eric!
glad you found us, more to come!
Fortunate to be a very small part of George, Eric and Mikes lives during spring training during 2015, 2016 and a few years after. All three exceptionally nice, very respectful and incredibly funny. Consider myself lucky to have driven them around on the golf carts as one of the off duty police officers. Best to all of them.

Best one yet. This is pure Gold
I feel like I came up in life with hoz and Moose. Great seeing these guys together. The dynamic duo!!! 😂

@@DigginDeepPodcast hell yeah you should! Hoz and Moose got that chemistry!
What a great interview. Hosts did an excellent job of extracting stories from George. Didn't think I'd listen to the whole podcast but loved every minute.

Man I was the era of of 2013-2015 years i always loved hosmer and gordan. My favorite retired plyer at time was Brett. So this cool af

Love these stories!! Great job guys!
How about Bret Saberhagen or Mark Gubicza for a future episode?
noted!!
What an awesome show!
a big thank you from the entire crew!
This is amazing. Love the Yordano talk miss em
I was at Brett's last home game and decades later both ALCS clinchers! Royals for life!!!!!
triple crown! thanks, Spicoli ;)
great memories wow
I remember Moose hitting a lot of pitches to the opposite field all the sudden in whatever year that was, he really made some changes in his approach and you could tell. He really became a solid #2 hitter for a while
This is so cool, thank you fellas.
"Watching Fox News, hopefully." I don't watch Fox, but that little piece let me know that George is one of my people.
George Brett- 1971, Billings Montana, where it all started!!!!!
One of the best hitters ever. Played the game the way it was intended.
Awesome video guys. Thank you.
George Brett was Mr. Clutch! Never seen anyone come thru like him till mo Vaughn for the red sox
This was over an hour but a fantastic podcast
Damn, George has stories for days!!!
The year George Brett is talking about with Charlie Lau, he hit .329 from July 14 until the day Lau was fired. Brett was dead on...finished at .282
George Brett rules
I would LOVE to see, Duffy,Lo Cain,JGuts and Gordo!!!! There are more but those are the ones on the top of my head! Love the podcast and this episode so much!!! 💙

Unfortunately today’s players don’t want to hear it and all believe swinging up on the ball is how pros do it. You guys are lucky to have had George as your hitting coach for a minute while you played. Try to find a way to give that knowledge to some of these young guys coming up. It’s not easy to get them to ‘buy in’ but if you can connect with even one player, you’ve paid it forward👍🏼
Keep up the great content 👍🏼 Best show out there guys👍🏼
we appreciate your comment and feedback! Glad to have you here, coach 👊 one of our ways to pass that on to the young guys is you! We love having coaches and educators here, welcome to the club!

@@DigginDeepPodcast I'm an older Royals fan and I hate to pick an ex-royal, but John Mayberry or Willie Wilson would be pretty good. I've heard Jaime Bluma and he's a pretty good interview. That's a tough one, there are so many.
