[edit] Biographical Information
During the end run of the 1997 season, while playing for the San Francisco Giants, Brian Johnson hit 2 game-winning home runs in the final 11 days of the season to help clinch the NL West title. This is particularly amazing given the fact that Johnson hit only 49 major league home runs in his entire career.
"It’s a major trauma because a part of you has died. I’ve been focusing on perfecting one craft since I was six years old. Now I’m 33 and retired, when in reality, I’m starting all over again." - Brian Johnson
