Got to meet him many times. Nobody knew the entirety of the game better; perhaps Don Zimmer was right there with him.
As a kid, I'll never forget his tremendous hustle, and how he sprinted to first base like a jackrabbit after drawing a walk. Huge loss for baseball, and very sad he never lived to see induction into the HOF.
RIP Pete
