Harmon Killebrew was one of the nicest ballplayers I met while covering baseball. I asked him one time, "What's the hardest you've ever hit a baseball... not the longest... but the absolute hardest?" He thought for a little bit and said, "Well, we were playing the White Sox in the mid-60s at their place and I absolutely crushed a ball. It hit one of those big steel girders just beyond the leftfield fence... and rolled nearly all the way back to the shortstop position. I can't hit a ball any harder than that." Harmon is a class act.
