...48 years ago this past Thursday, when a professional athlete had the courage and love of our country to do the right and patriotic thing regarding our flag? I am talking about Rick Monday with his spectacular save of an American flag a split second before two dirtbags people were apparently about to set it afire.
Here is a link to a great article, written 40 years later: https://www.mlb.com/news/rick-monday-saving-american-flag-resonates-c174266502
All I can say about his flag grab is: What a play, maybe the best ever in baseball history!
All the best,
Glenn B
