George Brett’s hitting .333 to win his first batting title while leading the Royals to the AL West championship in 1976;
Brett’s second batting title in 1980 as he just misses batting .400 for the season;
Dick Howser’s firing by the Yankees and revenge five years later as he manages the Royals to a championship in 1985;
