Fantastic article. Never get tired reading those guys and how they structured their lives after baseball...stories about their wives and families and all that. Reminds me of my grandparents. Also and how baseball wasn't the cash cow that made the players set for life...at least most of them. They played cause they loved it and it was a living although not a huge one in most cases. He made it to 90, married 65 years with kids and grandkids. Most of us would sign on the dotted line right now.............
