The day I interviewed Mickey Mantle

[@waynemcafee8647]

Wow great story thank you. I caught Willie Mays 559th homerun. August 29, 1967. Against dodgers. I was 12. It’s autographed “Best Wishes Willie Mays 559” I still have it and the ticket stubs

This is great interview and the length is great too....I myself, for my time period, spoke with a '98 Yankees great, ( BW), and in short spoke for 8 minutes, on '98 and memories. I have to find copy...on KZbin of the meet & greet in NYC..but, this brought memories, of that day.. and for the Yankees greats, dialouge, a once in a life time insights, one-one, into persona, on baseball and interpersonal friendliness, to team, City. Peace

Mantle was once asked "if he ever went up to the plate trying to hit a Homerun "? And he said " Everytime"

[@johnvan6803]

Mickey would have hit more home runs but he walked so often he didn't get a chance to swing away.

[@snuffyballparks6501]

Same with Ruth, Gehrig & Williams.

Billy Martin was one of the most miserable, rude, tempermental little jerks that were ever in the game. He was always drunk, and it finally got him, when he crashed in a pickup truck going home from a bar.

Why didn’t you tell him what a great player he was and what a wonderful influence he was for all our young kids to watch them
