So sorry to hear that.

He had some of the funniest commercials I have ever seen. And his appearance in Major League was equally as funny.


Master, again and still

I caught from the time I started playing pee wee, through high school. His joke about catching the knuckleball was so great..."The knuckleball is the easiest pitch to catch. Just wait until it stops rolling and pick it up." laugh2

Holding hands with one of the most intimidating pitchers of all time during the official team photo.

Nobody noticed it until after the photos were printed. They had to re-take the photo and both Uecker and Gibson got a fine. grin

He'll be very missed. A true baseball legend. He was all about the game and had a big heart.
