"Brett's Bronx Bomb - Oversize Giclee on Canvas - 30"" x 24"", 300 piece edition Friday, October 10, 1980 was a cold, raw day in New York City. A heavy mist had fallen through out the day, and threatened the third game of the American League Championship Series between the New York Yankees and Kansas City Royals. These two talented teams were meeting for the fourth time in five years for the American League crown. The Yankees had taken the three previous series, and in two of those years, 1976 and 1977, it took ninth inning heroics in the deciding fifth game to swing the series the Yankees way. New York ™s success was amazing considering the punishment laid on their pitching staff by Kansas City third baseman, George Brett. Brett was quickly establishing himself as one the premier hitters in the history of the American League, and 1980 may have been his best season ever, as he made a strong run at batting .400, before finishing the season hitting .390. Brett would rise to the m"

"Fergie - Oversize Giclee on Canvas - 30 �H X 24 �W Ferguson Jenkins made his Major League debut on September 10, 1965 at Connie Mack Stadium in Philadelphia. He allowed only two hits in 4.1 innings of shutout relief to earn a 5-4 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals in a game started by two future Hall of Famers, Bob Gibson and Jim Bunning. This short relief outing of a late season game between two second division teams was the springboard to a magnificent career that landed Fergie along side the two starters of his first ever game, in Baseball ™s Hall of Fame. Early the following season, Jenkins was shipped to the Chicago Cubs in a 4 player deal that helped turn the fortunes for the Cubbies. Starting in 1967, Fergie won 20 or more games for six straight seasons. Perhaps his finest year was 1971, when he captured the National League Cy Young award. Fergie ™s career milestones include 284 victories and over 3000 strikeouts."

"Ty on Third - Oversize Giclee on Canvas - 30 �W X 24 �H Ty Cobb, one of the game ™s first great players, dominated his era with a strong bat, and incredible speed. Known for playing the game with grit and determination, his style of play often went to the edge of the rules, and sometimes, even beyond the rules. He was rumored to have sharpened his cleats before each game so that he could spike his opponents as he slid into a base. Regardless of what you thought of his aggressive tactics, there was no denying his on the field accomplishments. He retired with 4,189 hits, an all time record that stood for fifty years. His 892 career stolen bases were considered the standard of the modern era, and this mark was also not surpassed for fifty years. Here we see the Georgia Peach, in typical fashion, sliding hard into third base in a game at Hilltop Park against the New York Highlanders."

"Donnie Baseball - Oversize Giclee on Canvas - 30 �H X 24 �W During the 1980 ™s, when you thought of class on the baseball field, the first name that came to mind was Don Mattingly. A tireless worker, he first tasted big league pitching in 1982. By 1984, not only had he become the everyday first baseman of the New York Yankees, but he put up a year that would be the envy of anyone. .343 batting average, 23 dingers and 110 RBI ™s. Incredibly, he followed that year up by winning the 1985 American League Most Valuable Player award. His relentless assault on the pitching staffs of the American League earned him the nick name �The Hit Man � and his tireless work ethic and passion for the game, earned him moniker �Donnie Baseball �. He hit over .300 every year from 1984 through 1989, and was part of a juggernaut Yankee offense that piled up runs at record rates. Despite his prolific hitting and the team ™s potent line up, the one thing that he was missing was "

"The Human Vacum Cleaner - Oversize Giclee on Canvas - 30 �H X 24 �W During the course of history in the Big Leagues, colorful nicknames are often placed on players. In many cases, the name so closely represents what the player is all about, that the nickname becomes a lasting description of the player ™s contributions to the long history of the game. �The Iron Horse �, �Teddy Ballgame �, �Old ™ Reliable �, �The Say Hey Kid �, �The Mick �. The list is endless. At the top of this list is third baseman, Brooks Robinson. His defensive skills were unparalleled. Using his incredible reactions, quick throwing release, and amazingly soft hands, he revolutionized fielding at third. He could turn momentum around in a heartbeat with a portfolio of highlight reel plays: Diving to the line, diving into the hole, fielding a slow roller down the line. His array of heart stopping defensive magic could break the back and spirit of an opponent and earned him the monike"

"Opening Day 1929 - Oversize Giclee on Canvas - 30 �H X 24 �W The Bronx Bombers were in a position that would become all too familiar at the start of the 1929 season. They were anxious to take the field as defending World Champions, having swept St. Louis in the previous year ™s World Series. It was the second consecutive Series sweep for the mighty New Yorkers, as they had also swept Pittsburgh in the 1927 series. This team, already being hailed as the greatest ever, was itching to defend their back to back titles. However, bad weather had forced a two day delay in opening the season, but finally on April 18, 1929 the weather broke enough to allow the raising of the championship banner and the first game of the new campaign. Playing under cold, graying skies and to a near capacity crowd, which included heavy weight champion Jack Dempsey, these New Yorkers set the tone for what they thought would be another great march through the American League.

"The Bronx Bombers - Oversize Giclee on Canvas - 30 �W X 24 �H In the long history of baseball, there have been many tandems that would define a lineup. Sluggers imbedded in the middle of a batting order that would dominate a game and pound opposing pitchers into submission. The two names almost synonymous with one another: Mays and McCovey, Aaron and Mathews, Mantle and Maris. However, the standard bearer for such a combination is clearly the first such duet, Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. The tandem that gave the Yankees their nickname, the Bronx Bombers, would attach pitching staffs like no other. They hit more home runs than entire teams and led the Yankees and baseball into an era of long ball that exists to this day. Here we see them relaxing at the bat rack in the home dugout at Yankee Stadium, studying the opposing pitcher like a tiger studies their prey."

"The Bambino - Oversize Giclee on Canvas - 30 �H X 24 �W The Bambino, The Sultan of Swat, The Babe, nicknames for arguably the greatest performer in the history of organized American sports, George Herman Ruth. From a rough upbringing in Baltimore to the heights of the baseball world, Babe Ruth had a legendary zest for life. On the ball field, there was never a competitor that achieved his level of success. He broke in with the Boston Red Sox as a 19 year old pitcher in 1914, throwing just 23 innings. In 1915, he won 18 games, and followed that up with consecutive 20 win seasons in 1916 and 1917. He was among the elite pitchers of his time, and amazingly never lost a start when pitching against Washington ace, Walter Johnson. Ruth was a mainstay of a pitching staff that saw the Red Sox capture World Series titles in 1915, 1916, and 1918. The Red Sox and the rest of the American League did notice something else about the Babe on days that he pitched. That man could swing the bat! A"
