Saw him play against my beloved Angels many times, and saw him hit some devastating home runs. He was also kind to young kids asking for his autograph. Great ballplayer, great man. Thanks for the memories, Killer—we miss you already!
Me too! I remember him hitting a home run to left field that I was certain was going to hit the Big A scoreboard. It fell about 10 feet short. I think the Big A was 500 feet from home plate.
