Any young fella obsessed with all things baseball in my age group remembers
Mr. Gibson. Lowest ERA for a season for any "modern day" starting pitcher EVER,
17 strikeouts in game 1 of the '68 WS, the guy was a fierce competitor and would
bring the heat - sometimes AT you as needed.
Off the field, a genuine good dude and of course, a first ballot Hall of Famer.
RIP Bob. Another of my childhood heroes, gone...
