@Ninefingers1010 So lets listen to you like you know what happened????
-
My memories of Mickey is tainted when received a donated liver in a few days.......the other who waited much longer were pushed aside so the Sports star can be taken care of. Forget what the paid doctors said....he got special treatment.
-
What I find so interesting is he has barely any strides into his swing. He just planted his foot and had so much power and bat speed that he could just crush the ball. He is my all-time favorite player and there will never be another Mickey Mantle.

Mantle, Berra, Mays, Dimaggio, Ruth, Gerhig, Musial, etc. were of a different time. They all had class. They all had talent. No drugs. Not one of modern day players can compare with these guys. They were simply the best.

@soxpatsicecream7 ; you know nothing about baseball. the bats used today (2011) have the same weight with exception to (two ounces). Everybody should have used the bat your referring and hit tapemeasure shots like The (only) Mick!!!! Nobody hit'em like the Mick!!

Mickey had a natural mesomorph (large muscle mass) body type, & his muscle fibers were of the fast-twitch variety. An extraordinary combination of natural God-given power and quickness. No, he didn't take roids, he didn't work out, he admits he didn't even rehab after ripping his knee during his first World Series. One game he says he was so hung over he argued the first pitch just to get thrown out as he couldn't see. strait.Too bad he abused his body and didn't focus on records like Bonds.
Ok...all i have to say is this...Mickey Mantle 5'11 185LBS. never did roids drank beer got raw power from working in mines could hit the ball 634 feet. Yes, 634 feet. Bonds, McGwire, AROD? get props for hitting the ball 450-500 ft? All did roids and are all physically bigger then Mickey was and still did not possess that kind of power...more so, have power from BOTH SIDES OF THE PLATE.

Are you joking? Mantle could hit the ball out of any park. NL or AL.
