Old age?
TRO... Time Ran Out.
Be curious to see how long he had diabetes.
Darn it! I had “fentanyl” in the betting pool...
Yup!
Diabetes. I wonder how old he was when diagnosed with it.
Agree!!!
He died of hustle. He hustled his heart out his whole life. Every time he sent a baseball down range, he sent little piece of his heart with it.
He rushed to death just like he hustled a single into a double, a double into a. Triple, an easy our into a single. …. We ca not have excellence with comes failure / imperfection. any defect. That is what they wanted to prove. With excellence. Thank you for your efforts Johnny hustle.
A disgusting human being on so many levels.
“Pete still needs to be put in the Baseball hall of fame”
Definitely . One of the top 5 best players of all time .
What are the odds he would die like that?
Badly ethically flawed. Obviously insufficiently contrite. But disgusting? This Guy can’t hang with that.
The Hall of Fame can’t give visitors a complete picture of the history of the game without admitting him posthumously and presenting the good and the bad together, fairly, hopefully, and tastefully.
Sounds like he lost another bet.
Could be that new Covid vaccine that thinks parts of the male heart muscle are Covid spikes. Can’t find the article I was reading the other day, but here are a couple of related stories:

Amen!
“A disgusting human being on so many levels.”
That’s pretty harsh but I don’t disagree. He definitely was a character and probably a liar when confronted with the curse of his gambling forays...
Of course.
It’s a Hall of Fame, not a Hall of Saints.
So many HOFers lived less than virtuous lives. Election should be based on objective standards.
