I'm thankful I got to see him play at the stadium many times before he passed. And I will always cherish my foul ball I caught at the 78 world series...that thurman handled.
RIP #15.

Pete- I'll pay you for that foul ball!! Munson was a class act, and one of my all time favorites. When you are talking about stars taken away from life way too early, any sports, there is Munson and Clemente....Both class acts, what a shame it was for such a short period....
