Detroit Tigers at Milwaukee Brewers, April 23, 1989 pt 1

Order: Reorder
Duration: 76:58
Updated: 06 Dec 2014

Featuring the Tigers' TV network broadcasting duo of George Kell and Al Kaline, whom Tigers' fans were so fortunate to have for about 20 years. Other play-by-play men have their gimmicks and statistics, and some talk more and louder. But a generation of Detroiters and Michiganders learned about the inside game of baseball just by spending a Sunday afternoon with this understated pair of Hall of Famers. We miss them. What's nice about this broadcast is that it is just a game on a chilly day in the early season. No special importance. Nothing riding especially on this game. The players and the broadcasters were just doing their jobs. Notice no speed gun readouts, no pitch counts, no balls, not even a "bug" with the score. You get to see only the action and decide on your own without much statistical help if a pitcher, hitter, fielder, base runner, manager, or umpire is any good. Note also how into the game the fans are, even without loud, electronic prompting. There is a good chance that Bud Selig, who was president of the Brewers at the time, was at this game. Bud, what was so wrong with major league baseball as seen here that had you had to screw it up so badly when you became Commissioner?

George Kell worked diligently at all facets of the game, relying on constant practice to become a solid hitter and a sure-handed fielder. He batted over .300 nine times and topped American League third basemen in fielding percentage five times. Utilizing a strong and accurate throwing arm, Kell led the league in double plays six times, assists four times and in putouts twice. In 1949, Kell dramatically captured the American League batting title when he edged out Ted Williams by less than two ten-thousandths of a point, .34291 to .34276.

Gladiator Days: Anatomy of a Prison Murder -TROY KELL - HBO DOCUMENTARY

Updated: 23 May 2015

Two white inmates brutally stab a black inmate in the State of Utah prison system. When the prison murderer(Troy Kell) is interviewed by the film producers, does not look like the stereotype Hollywood movie murderer. Prison inmate Troy Kell looks like a clean cut American young man. He is intelligent and articulate. At the time of the production of "Gladiator Days: Anatomy Of A Prison Murder," inmate Troy Kell was 33 years old; He began his prison life at age 18. It appears inmate Troy Kell's wrong decision to horribly shoot a man in the face began his life of crime at a young age.
