Topic: Kirk Gibson


  
  Kirk Gibson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kirk Harold Gibson (born May 28, 1957) is a former American two-sport athletic star, best known as a Major League Baseball player noted for his competitiveness and clutch hitting.
Gibson was born in Pontiac, Michigan, grew up in Waterford, Michigan (attending Waterford Kettering High School), and attended Michigan State University where he was an All-American wide receiver in football.
Gibson said that when the count reached 3-2, he stepped out of the batter's box and, in his mind, could hear Didier's voice, with its distinctive Southern drawl, reiterating that same piece of advice.

 Kirk Gibson - BR Bullpen
Gibson's pinch hit two-run home run off Dennis Eckersley in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series gave the Los Angeles Dodgers a 5-4 win over the Oakland A's and propelled the Dodgers to a 4 games to 1 Series triumph over the heavily favored A's.
Few baseball fans will ever forget the sight of Gibson hobbling around the bases to the silken sound of Vin Scully's voice crying out, "In a year that has been so improbable, the impossible has happened!" It was his only at bat of the series.
Gibson was also a television broadcaster for the Detroit Tigers from 1998 to 2002.

 Kirk Gibson
Last night, on ESPN Classic, they played the legendary first game of the 1988 World Series, in which Kirk Gibson hit what is arguably the greatest World Series home run of all time on a full count in the bottom of the 9th, giving the Dodgers a 5-4 victory over the A's.
Vin Scully continuously talked about how Gibby was seriously injured and how clutch he'd been all year, and how he wasn't even able to participate in pre-game ceremonies because of those injuries - and this was early in the 6th inning!
It was almost as if he knew what was going to happen, and only brought up these points as a way to create foreshadowing and dramatic gravitas for Gibson's eventual shining moment late in the 9th.

 Chicken Little is Kirk Gibson - Cinematical
Even if you didn't see the gimpy Kirk Gibson limp to the plate and hit a World Series, game-winning home run off of the unhittable Dennis Eckersley, the currently inescapable Wheaties ads have probably given you a pretty good idea what happened.
So, in an effort to take advantage of the baseball frenzy that comes around every year in late October (granted, it's a smaller frenzy when no big market, East Coast teams are involved, but still - people care), Disney has pushed out a charming new teaser for Chicken Little.
Accompanied only by Scully's call of the Gibson home run, Chicken Little himself drags a bat up the plate and hits one out - just watching legs that small run is hilarious to me, but then I'm easily entertained.
