the last few years of his life were such a bummer too, his wife divorced him, he got wrapped up with sexual harrassment allegations, some woman claimed to have been his mistress for nearly a decade...at least he got the hall of fame...RIP to one inspirational fella

RIP, I don't watch baseball at all but to die at such a young age with that much talent is just a waste, a terrible thing to see.
