How sad, Chuck. So young. Sorry I don't know his name, but I'm sorry about his passing.

Massachusetts Boy...
He will be remembered in his home state as well as by his fans in Detroit. I remember something written about him regarding pitching to Yaz at Fenway.

Sorry to hear about the Bird
We are from Michigan and remember how great a pitcher he was for the Detroit Tigers.and how much fun it was to watch him in action.
He will be missed. RIP Mark |
