@GuntherEagleman I remember thinking why would someone want to burn the flag that we pledge allegiance to and people died to protect. It made an impression.
🚨 50 YEARS AGO TODAY: Dodgers legend Rick Monday became an American hero.
Two protesters ran onto the field at Dodger Stadium trying to burn the American flag… and Rick Monday sprinted in like a damn boss and SNATCHED it right out of their hands.
No hesitation. No apologies. Pure patriotism
@TheVinScully with the call!
