Local news tonite in San Diego reported he passed today at 82 at his home in Rho Santa Fe, a few miles north of SD. So sad for his family coming just four days before Christmas. Such a talent in covering all sports impeccably for so many years. He was - like his late broadcast partner, Tony Gwynn - loved and respected by all, with never an unkind word said about him. Sadly, he finished his distinguished HOF sportscasting career with the Padres in 2016, sharing the booth with a goofball that couldn't carry his joc. Sorry, no links. Just google your favorite on-line paper.
