“Growing up in Minneapolis, my brothers and I would get in fist fights over who got to “be” Killebrew when we played baseball.”

Well at least the loser could be Tony Oliva!

Heh, interesting enough — There were 4 boys in my family, the “runner-up” in the melee got to be Oliva!

The losers could be anyone else, except Babe Ruth. No one was allowed to be Babe Ruth.

Great memories.
