He was my favorite MLB player of all time - I met him once back in 1968 at a local mall & he signed my catchers mitt, which I still have today. Goodbye Bill Freehan - thanks for giving me someone to look up to, & a high bar to always try & get over. https://www.mlb.com/news/bill-freehan-obituary

SunnyRuff... I was buds with Denny for awhile when he was “out” .. and I met BF at a celebrity auction.. ole bill bonds and CoolMan was there too ...
Btw .. where’s DM these days ? Just saw McClain on the news this morning commenting on the Jack Morris controversy. He is huge.

Btw .. where’s DM these days ? Don't know where Denny is living these days or what he is doing. Where I grew-up, we moved there in 1964 - it was a new subdivision in Livonia, MI. Denny McClain lived in a house at the end of our block, Tiger's Dick McAuliffe lived behind a buddy Paul just a few houses down from us. Kinds cool having a couple Tigers living right in our vicinity, I never saw either of them though. They moved just a few years later probably to Bloomfield or somewhere more ritzy. The 60's were wonderful.

I just saw this in the news he was one of the greats. Before my time but I certainly knew who he was a great player and spent his entire career with the Tigers and those days seem to be gone forever. R. I. P. 🐯
