‘Take Classic Video of the Day: Bob Costas Interviews Mickey Mantle

Good evening, ‘Takers.

This is not a Braves video, but rather a legend in his own words. I’m not sure there’s anything written to this day about Mickey Mantle that can touch this interview. Though I’m personally dying to read The Last Boy as my in season reading assignment when the March and April roll around. And no worries if you don’t have time to read it yourself and you love The Mick like I do. We’ll review every chapter on this very blog.

If you’ve got 15 minutes, listen to Mickey Mantle reflect on his career and more importantly his life.
