He was my childhood baseball hero! During a game in San Francisco. My grandfather gave my Montreal Expo to a security cop and Gary Carter singed it for me. Will never forget it! R.I.P. Gary Carter.
He died young, but the way he lived was not sad. He was an amazing person who did everything with joy that ALL of us could learn a lesson from and try to emulate. Not a Mets fan, but he is one of my all-time favorites from watching baseball for over 50 years.
I am a Mets fan because of Gary Carter. When he left the Expos I left with him. All time favourite player. So sad when he passed. May he still rest in peace. 😇 ⛅️
Although I am a lifelong Phillies fan from Philly , it was around 1980 that Mr. Carter was playing in his prime. I became a fan instantly after seeing his aggressive performance on the field. RIP 🙏🏽
I had no idea he had cancer and had died..... The guy was a STUD! Played in an era of so many great catchers. Bench, Munson, Fisk, Simmons, Tennace, Yeager, Porter and probably some I missed.
I talked to Gary several times in Reno in 2008, when he managed the Orange County Flyers of the Golden Baseball League and the Flyers would come up to play Reno. Gary was kind enough to sign a Baseball for me which I still have somewhere.
Always liked him he was great player. One best catchers hitters I ever saw play. Really glad he in the HOF he certainly deserves b there. He was baller big time
great guy seen him few times playing with mets and was lucky enough to meet him when he coached the long island ducks after a game i waited outside the park for 3 hours for him to finally come out only was like 3 people out there at that point he came out and signed like 4 things for me all ducks stuff mini bat duck jersey ducks baseball and ticket from game ....really nice guy he said only thing wont sign is mets realated stuff and major league stuff cause that he gets lot of money to do ...im was like i want the autographs dont care what its on not gonna sell it ....rip gary one of the best catchers ever him and maybe bench and yogi top 3 ever
There have been quite a few former Phillies players die of brain cancer (Veteran’s Stadium) . Newspapers have started to try and relate these deaths to early types of astroturfs. Immediately thought of ex-Expos Gary Carter when reading the article.
Supposed Christian man Gary Carter cried like a baby when he found out he had terminal cancer (he died at age 57) and that God was going to take him home to Heaven.

He was Mr. Expo. What a fine player he was. Life sadly cut short.
Carter was one of my childhood heros. I loved watching him play with the Expos. I was sad to see him traded to the Mets. Good Video.
What a great player he was. I felt so sad when he passed, and so young. Rest in Peace Gary Carter.

His Flyers played at Cal State Fullerton in his home town. It was truly awesome to see him home and happy before the darkness took him from us.

As likable in person, as he was on the field. One of my favorite Mets of all time. Will never forget "The Kid".
Gary was the original player named the kid great talent and a smile to go with it ⚾️
He was a great catcher and a team player. Sad for his family.
Why did you use a picture of Jimmy Carter in this video?

WOW , I never thought about that until you said this. Didn’t Phillies catcher Darren “Dutch” Daulton die of the same type of cancer ?
Gary was an RBI machine...
Great video, but the gentleman in the Navy uniform is Jimmy Carter, the 39th President.
Off all the players in expo history it ws gary carter who put mtl expos on map
Only player in mlb history to have 2 hrs in all star game and ws game
His dad was not Jimmy Carter.
No, but he was related to Gomers nemesis Sargeant Carter.
Gary "is the camera on me ?" Carter
Click bait title. Thumbs down for that reason.
Don't appreciate you putting these false titles that make the players look bad and like they weren't good people. That's what's sad about you
youre talking to AI bot
Doubt his dad was jimmy carter. That's who that picture is
The 7up kid
