November 4, 201014 yr My all-time favorite manager! When I was a kid I absolutely loved the Big Red Machine with him all my favorite players and then later I got to see him regularly with the Tigers in spring training. Just a phenomenal person. RIP Sparky. :angel
November 5, 201014 yr I grew up in Cincy, he was like a god up there. Along with Bench he was just the face of what baseball was all about for me. I cherish my autographed baseball card like a little kid. :thumbup Damn. RIP.
November 9, 201014 yr I had no idea dementia was fatal. He was a little before my time so I don't have any memories of him.
