I met him when I was about 15 years old. My grandfather knew him. He made bats at one time. He even gave me a couple but I forgot to have him sign them. Great man and gentleman.
Nice shot of Bob at the brewery hole in a boat chasing a fish water looked high enough it was probably springer season the bennifits of retiring from baseball ment he could go after the salmon in March and April agness misses both you and Monica
Let’s never forget the spirit of the game that brought us such phenomenal ball players! And those of some of the most historically significant teams that fed the fever of the American Pastime. Today, honestly the NFL cleaned up its filthy reputation to replace baseball as America!’s favorite sport.
The America that was: "....the ball hit the roof of the dugout and hit me in the mouth because I wasn't paying attention." America now: that ball hit me and I'm going to sue everyone here, including the peanut vendor.
Catching anything with those gloves is a miracle, thanks Bobby
Tugs at the heart ❤ thanks ✌😊🙏 I owe my life in part, to America 🇺🇸 ...given the world 🌎 so much
He definitely "hustled and put that extra effort in all of the time". He led the league in triples the second to last year of his career!
Not many people realize He was the First base coach on The 1967 Boston Red Sox. The Impossible Dream Year. 🙏

He signed autographs free in the mail until a few days before he passed away.
This is amazing. Rest in Peace, sir.
Awesome piece

God Damn those were legendary players.
We lived in Warwick, then Smithfield. Being Italian, Tony C was my hero.

Yea, but the peanut vendor will be okay, because he's suing everyone else for exposing him to the trauma : p
WOW Amazing story
Better than Ted Williams and I mean it!!!!!!!
