As a young Little League All-Star pitcher/short-stop/Center Fielder, "Fireball Bob" was greatly admired. He along with Whitey Ford were my favorite Major League Baseball pitchers. Later in life, I had the opportunity to play along side his son, Steve, in our Church's Softball Team. Steve played Short-Stop and I pitched. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss of a truly gifted individual and inspiration to countless thousands of aspiring young ball players. Steve, perhaps you...

He trusted us enough to let us "baby sit" his large home for about a week one time when he was away. I have the greatest respect and regard for him and feel so fortunate to have known him.
