My first baseball memories are of that ‘81 season/World Series. What a career and life.

Sad, and heartbreaking. "Fernandomania" was real. RIP, sir...

I was a young teen when "Fernandomania" hit...it was the first time I dug through my collection looking to see how many rookies I had in my stacks (would later look through my 81 Topps for the Rock) and was super excited to see I had a few. I was a hero at school for a while. RIP...it was an exciting time. He will be missed...
