I've never heard or seen this before, thanx for posting it. Grew up in Chicago and remember the excitement about the young Goose & Forester, on the southside. Traded both for one year of Richie Zisk, but was a great one, the 1977 southside Hit Men.
He lives near me and I run into him sometimes . He takes time to chat and been to house, he is fun to talk to. I said something meant to be weird and funny, he looked up and gave me that look every batter got. That was something I tell you.
I think his memory of his 1978 slump is worse than it really was. He blew 4 of the first 11 games. Not great but hardly the end of the world--or the season.
I got the opportunity to see him pitch many times. He was a great competitor!

Love the Goose, especially when he was a Pirate ☠️
Goose is cool
My very first white sox game in July 31 1991 robin ventura hit a grand slam off of gossage and won the game never forget that moment

Until that fateful l at-bat Gibsom was 0 for 13 lifetime against Gossage. The Goose did own him until that moment.
