Default Let's hear it for Mr. Phil Coyne!

Mr. Phil Coyne, a Pittsburgh Pirates usher, just retired. What makes this noteworthy is that he will turn 100 years old later this month. He started working as a Pirates usher in 1936, when Waite Hoyt was pitching for them, and Pie Traynor was their manager, and the only years he missed was when he served in the military in WWII.
