I'm just heartbroken tonight. My baseball hero is gone. He'd been looking so frail lately I think I knew this day was coming, but it still is a sad evening.
My aunt, an Orioles fan in Baltimore called Brooks' office at Crown Petroleum when my daughter was born in 1987 and told his secretary that his biggest fan had had a daughter. Brooks himself called her and got my mailing address. Soon this photo arrived unsolicited.
