I do miss Skip, Pete, and Ernie. They were like family.
I don’t remember hearing Milo, but, I remember him being a Braves announcer.
My favorite baseball story was told by Ernie Johnston.
He was pitching in a world series game to Mickey Mantle and threw his best pitch. Mantle hit a foul tip and Ernie swore that he smelled smoke! I believe him. Ernie wasn’t a bad pitcher at all.
Ernie Harwell got a special mention before the game in Detroit today. Tigers had a good home opener winning against the Red Sox.
