Default R I P Bob Gibson
Just saw on MLB network that the great Bob Gibson has died at age 84 .
A true competitor who was an intimidator on the mound who believed the whole plate was his and you took your life into your hands when when you stepped into the batter’s box against him .
How many pitchers caused rule changes during their career ? I can think of 2 :
Amos Rusie and Bob Gibson . The book From Ghetto to Glory is a sports classic .

Yeah, but they are going to have to polish their pick off moves with Lou Brock getting on base...

Bob passed away on the 52nd anniversary of his 17 strikeout performance in the 68 world series. Can you imagine striking out 17 in the world series? R.I.P. Bob!
