I'm old enough to remember Jim Bunning of the Detroit Tigers pitching that no-hitter against the Boston Red Sox in 1958 at Fenway Park ! Only five players in Tiger history have thrown no-hitters. The Tigers have never had a Perfect Game in their history, though with modern replay Galarraga would have had one . RIP Jim.

While both were accomplished in their field, they seem very underrated imo. Too bad....may both rip.

If I am recalling this right, someone once tried to explain to Bunning that as a matter of physics a curve ball was impossible, and he responded, physics don't know sh*t.

1000 strikeouts in each league and no hitters in each league. Senator from my home state. Antagonist to Ruth Bader Ginsburg in one of the odder chapters. A prolific signer back in the day too. RIP to him and Cher's main squeeze at one time. I'm sure it's no more than ever but seems like 2016 into mid-2017 has been a tough haul for celebrities.....

I don't ever recall a year like last year where we lost so many. This year, like you mentioned, seems to be continuing in that dept, sadly.

ramblin' man is one of my favorite songs of all time. Gregg Allman will surely be missed.
