"I guess that my most memorable game would have to have been the 1980 playoff game with the New Yankees when George Brett took Goose Gossage out of the park into the upper deck to win the ALCS for us. We had been to the playoffs 3 out of the previous 4 years and the Yankees had beaten us all 3 times. It was a great feeling to finally beat them and make it to the World Series." - Darrell Porter
