My hero too in all honesty, and I grew up a KC fan. My favorite Hall of Fame speech. Couldve listened to him talk all live long day and be thoroughly entertained.
Whitey knew how to play baseball. Exciting baseball. Build with speed. His era was about the end of real baseball. Now its spoiled brats and home run derby. Yawn.
None of the analytics guys would understand how his teams win if he were managing today. Nobody figured it out when he was with either the Royals or Cardinals.
@@alanpeel1981 Willie Mcgee, ozzy Smith, Terry pendleton, Vince Colman and the other little speedster I can't name right now, made whitey look good but they played strictly to his theory of the baseball.
@@tree7249 What made his ownership and Cardinals management happy was that they kept payrolls low, played to the ballpark, and they drew big crowds. Hard to be unhappy with what he did in St. Louis for baseball in that city.
Rest in Peace, Coach. You were one of the best!
He's playing ball with the greats now, where he belongs.
Rest in Paradise, Dorrel Norman Elvert Herzog.
Rest in peace, Whitey.
Herzog was an exceptional manager, both for the Royals and Cardinals.

Whitey mastered the art of doing more with less.
@@richardzowie1984 that's true nowadays players get into professional baseball trying to hit the ball out of the stadium🤦🏾♂️
