What a life. Had to have been a runner-up for the title, "Mr. Baseball." New York Times obituary here. 

 

It's great that he was able to spend such a long time in baseball. And getting a pair of rings was nice.

Thank you for sharing

Strange that the Strib has not featured an obit yet?

Heaven needed a 2B glove man who could handle the bat a little bit and it was time for his call up.

 

He seems to have lead a full life. How many of us are ever lucky enough to do what we truly love for our whole life?

One of my oldest memories as a Twins’ fan was meeting him at a Twins’ caravan type event at my local VFW and getting his autograph.

That's too bad. He lived a long life, and did what he loved to do.
