George Brett definitely deserves a spot with the Royals after spending all 21 seasons of his Hall of Fame career in Kansas City.

Former teammate Willie Wilson said, “For us, he was the best guy. I feel like the bigger the situation, the more he was having fun.”

Brett’s penchant for breathing fire but managing to remain calm under pressure is explored in a new documentary, “Bullet,” premiering this Thursday at 8pm ET on MLB Network.

George Brett played 21 seasons with the Kansas City Royals, becoming the only player in baseball history to win a batting title in a 30-year span. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in his 1999 year.

Brett’s competitiveness was legendary.

The documentary features interviews with teammates, opponents, and Brett himself, with his intensity on and off the field being a central theme.

Milwaukee Brewers Hall of Famer Robin Yount said, “I had seen George play a few times when he wasn’t the happiest man in the world, so I took the game very seriously.” “I knew what I was working on,” he says with some understatement.
