This week's biopic is on the greatest player in Brewers history, Robin Yount. Robin played on the competitive edge, and left everything on the field during his 20 year playing career. In fact, Yount left it all over the field, winning the American League MVP, at two different positions, 6 years apart. Drafted by the Brewers with the third overall pick in the 1973 Amateur MLB Draft, Yount makes his big-league debut at the age of 18, on Opening Day of 1974, as the Brewers starting Shortstop, and establishing himself as the new breed of power-hitting Shortstops that is so prevalent in the game today, before having a career threatening arm surgery and becoming a fleet-footed, sure-handed Center Fielder. #RobinYount #MilwaukeeBrewers #LarryYount #TaftCharterHighSchool #GeorgeBamberger #HarveyKuenn #PaulMolitor #CecilCooper #GormanThomas #BenOgilive #BJSurhoff #AmericanLeagueMVP #CountyStadium #GordonGoldsberry #DavidClyde #DavidStearns
