what are you, blind? (answered)

In 1983 the "Pine Tar Incident" occurred. Most everybody knows that it was George Brett and Billy Martin who were two of the three key figures involved. The umpire was the third. What was his name? If you really want to get serious, name the umpire who held Brett back, thus saving the other umpires life?

Tim McClelland was the home plate umpire who nullified the homerun. It was Joe Brinkman who held him back.<br><br><span class=gensmall>Accepted as answer by metsfan1969 on Fri Feb 07, 2003 8:56 am EST.</span>

You're right! I loved the look on Bretts face as he came storming out of the dugout. What a classic!

Nice Job!
