Even with my advancing memory loss, I can still name more players from the 1970s than from the last 30 years.

RIP Davey Lopes.

One of my favorite sportswriters wrote that we all want baseball to remain as it when we were 10 or 12 years old. I think that’s true and that is why we remember so vividly.

Joe Posnanski btw….
