Finally reading Aces: The Last Season on the Mound with the Oakland A's Big Three, after listening to Mychael's radio show on Saturdays and promising myself I would read it years ago. I always enjoyed his take on the vast array of topics he would cover beyond the A's and i'll never look at a shopping cart the same way as I did before I first tuned in! R.I.P. Big Urbs!

Condolences to the Urban family. Big Urb was not only a teammate but a friend. Spent many hours playing, laughing and competing at Cañada.

Miss seeing Urb look back at me at 2nd and yelling at him to " bust this dude inside" when he was in the mound or us giving him a hard time for not running with us while he´s sat on an exercise bike at the top of the hill. Lastly, gonna his
