Dave Parker Has Passed Away
Dave Parker, who was nicknamed "The Cobra" by the Pirates broadcasters, died this weekend at 74 years old. He was a great hitter, but I'll always remember this play during the 1979 AS game.

He was my favorite player at that time. My Dad took me to that game. We were sitting in the RF bleachers that day. My wife and I are headed to our first HOF induction ceremony in Cooperstown next month. He was my primary reason for attending. It’s heartbreaking that he won’t be delivering what I’m sure would have been an unvarnished speech. The same could be said for Dick Allen.
