Billy Martin. What a character

That ump is lucky someone got to Brett just in time. He was going to attack him

I've seen videos of this in the past. Seemed like a setup. Martin was just waiting for the perfect time to try this. Smart guy but umpires were dumb for falling for it.... Then again, I can't say they are much better today.

I remember as a kid I couldn’t wait to wake up, read the sports page and memorize the box scores to see how my favorite players did.
