I knew about Stan "The Man" Musial because he was from Donora, Pennsylvania. My mother was from Webster. The town across the river from Donora. So I followed his career

The guy was my hero but he’s right….he blew it!😔

Never saw him play but he was my dad's favorite player. He was almost like a mythical player to me. Something about his name is legendary.

Barry gay.

Stan 'The Man' Musial is my favorite player of all time!! My parents took me to numerous St. Louis Cardinals games. I've been a rabid baseball fan ever since. Just went to the 2024 MLB All-Star game. There is a book on Stan Musial covering his whole 'Interesting' life. I've adoptede the moniker 'Van the Man' to honor him. Great vidieo. Thanks.

And to think the zinc mines got Mickey too

If #Boomers had a #Jesus, he'd name would be #MickeyMantle.

Good lawd seriously!!? Just when you think this guy is amazing with an electric intimidating entrance, a menacing stare that would put doubt in the most elite fighters, the childhood struggles he overcame and now this. May sound silly but I'm not ashamed as a 55 year old Caucasian male that "Poatan" is my favorite UFC fighter of all time! Thank you sir for your inspiration dedication out of this world fighting skills and positive influence you've had on young and old alike!!

Ken Burns really dropped the ball on Stan Musial

Bonds at Yankee stadium and Bonds again in 02 WS

Legend

SOO FRIGGING TRUE - players today WITH VERY FEW EXCEPTIONS just DONT GIVE A SHIT ! THANKS for the time you took writing this !

Blessed Jackie Robinson, pray for us.

Skip bayless sighting

Costas could have retuined me watching baseball history. Thanks.

Ol Jim Leyland put him in his place 😂

In the late 50's or 60's Stan hit 4 consecutive home runs in a double header when I use to listen to the Cardinals on the radio

In his rookie season, Stengal and the rest of the Yankee management overhyped him and put way too much pressure on him. It's the classic case on how not to handle a phenomenal young player.

Wish Dick Schapp Or Mel Allen Was In this Documentary b.......................Even Still ...... It Is Outstanding................. Thank U sports Doc

Great player great human being

Mick i met you in 94th for the auto

Sometimes people go crazy when they lose a family member yes i would be really sad too but you have to learn its part of life just like were born and its a beautiful thing then at end theres a dark death but you shouldn't fear cause theres still light after the dark once someone is born there process of dying has started like even if youre the healthiest person in the world youre still slowly dying cause no one escapes old age and yes it hurts alot losing someone you love especially your kids it hurts more than losing a parent but you cant go crazy and that's why while youre patents are alive you have to learn to support yourself and be on your own and just learn about life cause death is as beautiful as being born you dont have to be scared its ok

What a guy. Stan the Man and you wlll always be..

It's extraordinary to see how many lives have been touched by Jackie's story! Jerry Stackhouse wore 42 in honor of Jackie.

Mickey, ALI , the Beatles My heroes

I remember when he played here in Pittsburgh he took a back seat to Bonilla. I think that's what made him take the roids to be better because he was so skinny

I wonder what his stats would have looked like without the "Juice"

This is some stone age shiznit! I mean, c'mon. I need to watch it on my grandma's Sony Trinitron.

The best their is the best their was and the best their ever will be -Barry Bonds.

I am much too young to have ever gotten the chance to watch him play. The Mick is still far and away the player I find the most interesting yet remarkable legend and testament to what this sport and its players once meant to all of us. Thank you for this

RIP Mickey.

I grew up in a small town in Indiana. Not very many black folks live in southern Indiana even now. I remember going with my Dad to ask a guy about making a sign for a business Dad was starting. I remember the sign painter was a big black guy who I'd seen around. He and Dad were friends and I remember the guy smiling and saying to Dad ' your boy sure aren't afraid of black folks Cliff ! I asked Dad what he meant by that and Dad explained about prejudice and how some people didn't like other people who didn't look like them. He explained that racism is basically fear and ignorance. I always will remember that day. That conversation affected the way I approached all people from that day when I was 6 years old.

🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Love you Mick 2024 🎉🎉🎉❤

And one of his twin brothers worked for my dad in Kansas City. I never knew for sure how he heard of that particular job.

And TV was just becoming popular. And he had it all perfectly for it.

Crazy to think Mickey Mantle died nearly 30 years ago

Musial was a hardcore white supremacist, as in "purify the blood." He distinguished between "black people and n***ers." Heard the rant myself in a living room. Couldn't believe it at the time but it makes sense.

Mickey Mantle was one of those rare people who could be as flawed as he was and still be loved by millions people all over the world. Imagine someone who didn't establish any new records or impossible to reach standards for future players. But somehow was THE guy. The one everyone wanted to know and be like. If he struck out at bat, you felt his frustration. When you see him struggling to even walk, you could sense his courage and wanted to be able to take away his pain. When he was sick and dying, you felt like you were dying a little too. There will never be another Mick.

Love him but didn't realize he spoke at HUAC against Robeson, that's uh... not great. Still love him, but that's disappointing to learn.

Back in the late 80’s I found an address for Mr Musial in the back of a Beckett magazine. I was just a kid, but I sent him a card with a short note asking for an autograph. In a couple weeks he sent it back to me, signed. That really meant a lot to me, and I still have that card. He was the epitome of what a great baseball should be.

May we all receive the fullest measure of Mickey Mantle's blessings.

In 2024 it's easy to see Mickey mantle was a good friend, dad, husband and man.

Candle stick was 1082 total out field vs yankee 2382 out field 😅

The true m and m were marciano amd mantle.

Mantle was not drinking each games he said he drank in the off seasons.when he won the 1956 and 1961 and 1964 seasons drinking was not the issues

I used to play a lot of golf with Mantle. I asked him who was the toughest pitcher he faced. He didn't hesitate. He said Kofax without a doubt.

Merln is my real hero

he didnt blow anything.. he didnt understand what was given to him.. i mean come on.. he didnt even have time to understand why he was loved so much...

I’ve always wanted to have that aura that folks like Mr. Mantle had. Him and Mr. Nolan Ryan where who I dreamed of being like. I only knew the strong silent with that grin. I didn’t know of what either one’s private life was really like. Maybe that’s a good thing… if you only know the good a person does, it makes you strive for only that.. the good.
