Video: Gary Carter hits RBI double in final career at-bat

I was fortunate to have played with Gary in the Penn league. Even as a young man he was a true gentleman and loved the game so much. He will be missed by many and may his spirit live on the hearts and memories of his family, friends and fans... RIP my friend.

I didn't watch that game live but I certainly remember watching the TV highlights that night. What a great way to end a brilliant career - getting the game winning hit in front of your home fans, who in turn give a well deserved standing ovation.

Thanks for all the great memories # 8! RIP.

Long live Gary!

R.I.P. Gary! Great video...Montreal loved the Expos - lost to greed! Bring back the Expos!!!

Goodbye, Gary. As a Red Sox fan, it was hard to admit you were one of my favorite players in 1986, but it was true. Class act, great player, certified Hall of Famer. Only Puckett, Ripken and you come to mind when you name great players who were universally admired.

A great losss to baseball. God Bless his family my he rest in peace.

How awesome was that last at bat? R.I.P.

rest in peace and thanks for everthing you were a g reat player

So sad to see such a great player leave us at 57, baseball lost one of its great players.

Very classy player, enjoyed watching him play!

Thank You KID Thanks for being a class act thanks for leading the way with your child like love for the gsme that despite your masterey of it you never got bigger then it goodbye Mr. Carter

....1986...game 6, with 2 outs.
-thank you Gary. Thank you for the great memories. =,-[

What professional athletes should be, a decent family man, who did not do drugs or commit adultery, get DUIs, say shocking things, enthused and happy about his game, unabashed and not embarrassed to be happy to be playing, and happy in his beliefs, and happy about his life and family. My heart catches at this loss. We need his type.

Yes, I liked him a lot! Nice Guy, Great Player!

For any Canadian baseball fan that loves the great game of baseball it was a priviledge to have Gary Carter play for the Montreal Expos for as long as he did.......I know anybody that loves baseball would have loved Gary Carter as much as I did. I followed his career and was very heartbroken when he left Montreal.......easily one of my all time fave players! RIP Gary....your exuberance and committment was immeasurable.........

NNady, let's get this straight, all of Canada loved the Expos not just the city or the province.....I am from Vancouver and can remember watching Rusty Staubs and Spaceman Lee way back in the very early days.....a lot of great players played in Montreal and I loved watching them play......Carter, The Hawk, The Big Cat Galarraga, Pedro Martinez, Dennis Martinez, Larry Walker, Steve Rogers, Vladdy, Tim Raines, Wallach, Reardon, Parrish, Cromartie the list goes on and I can even remember them playing at little Jarry Park what an intimate ball park that was to play ball in.........no greater Expo than the HOF Gary Carter though.......always my fave foresure......
