Former MLB pitcher Bob Tufts (Giants, Royals 1981-83) married my second cousin Suzanne. He never got a proper chance to establish himself in the bigs, and retired soon after KC traded him into the Reds minor league system. He told me some not flattering stories about manager Frank Robinson, and he adored manager Dick Howser. He was managed in the minors by Rocky Bridges, and he told me that Bridges was a sweet guy, but was seriously nuts.
Bob passed away too young a few years ago; he may have married into my family, but he was probably the nicest guy I've ever known in my family. |
