Hard to believe that Senior Smoke has passed. 69 is not looking that old now a days! In the last several years the Bird and  Rodriguez have passed away.

Hail Harbo

Mostly followed that season through the Stars and Stripes newspaper and Armed Forces Network (AFN) while in Germany.  What a magical season.  As fortune would have it I found myself TDY back to the States that September and was able to be at Tiger Stadium when they clenched the AL East beating Milwaukee 3-0.
