Sad day for baseball and Yankee fans. RIP to a true legend

His son, Eddie Ford, played for Carolina in the early 70's. Sat next to him in my history class and we talked a lot.

It's sad losing these links to the former generation. Ford just overlapped with Dimaggio who just overlapped with Gehrig and Babe.

Seaver, Brock, Gibson and now Ford, must be a new baseball league forming up above

The Chairman of the Board

My second hero as a 9-year old. Roy Rogers was my first.

I honestly was not aware that he was still alive. But I remember him well. Outstanding contributor on some great teams.

My favorite, too, along with all the Yankees of that era.
