Yeah, remember that. Tug McGraw was one of the players.

He dies early of aggressive brain cancer and his wife is battling Alzheimer’s. Life can really suck sometimes.

Why I could quite get on board with the everything happens for a reason crowd.

cancer. NYT had an article couple years back about the correlation between astro turf (which emits cancer causing fine particulates) and baseball players. I think there were 5-6 players from Philly that all died from the same brain cancer that Wake had. I believe he spent time in Pittsburgh who had astro turf at that time. Gotta wonder...

RIP. Loved watching him pitch and he was just as good in the booth.[/QUOTE]
