I remember his years with the Tigers, a lot of bad years leading up to the 1984 Series. No superstars, no hall of famers, but what a balanced team it was, much like this year's Giants.

There is a 3-page writeup in the Detroit Free Press, can't be posted here. Godspeed, Sparky.

This is sad.

Rest easy Sparky,I always enjoyed your interviews. Know that your not alone.

That Tigers team was the greatest team ever, that 35-5 start was amazing, they just didn’t lose. Sparky is my all-time favorite manager, even when he was with the Reds.

This is how I prefer to remember Sparky Anderson.

Too bad. I remember Sparky as the skipper of the Big Red Machine.

Thanks for posting. One of the all-time great managers (men) who contributed so many positives to the game of baseball.

I agree...”Godspeed Sparky”.
