20th Anniversary Pictures

I took quite a few photos during the 20th anniversary of the Royals 1985 World Series celebration. One of which was this photo of the powder blue jerseys from the 85 team that was hanging up outside of the Royals offices on Friday night:




Unfortunatley, when the 1985 team was introduced on Friday night, the rain continued to fall. But the few thousand people who remained in the stadium stood and clapped. A list of the players who came back for the reunion: Steve Balboni, Joe Beckwith, Buddy Biancalana, George Brett, Steve Farr, Dane Iorg, Danny Jackson, Charlie Leibrandt, Darryl Motley, Jorge Orta, Greg Pryor, Bret Saberhagen, Pat Sheridan, Jim Sundberg, John Wathan, and Frank White. Several coaches and a trainer also made it: Gary Blaylock, Mickey Cobb, Lee May, and Jim Schaffer.



I took this one just before Bret Saberhagen was inducted into the Royals Hall of Fame:



Here's Bret Saberhagen making his way to the podium:



Here's Bret giving his speech:



Shortly before game time:



Bret recieved one more "congrats" as he walked off the field:
