Thanks, BD.

I trust that Lasorda's "Great Dodger in the sky" has a spot for Roseboro in the starting line up.

Nice one Babe! &;-)

This game will not be easy.
There'll be trouble, there'll be strife
To make the winning runs, my boy.
For this game is played on the field of life.

So stand behind your team, my boy.
There'll be many who'll applaud.
Just remember that you're the player,
And the umpire here is God.

I read about his death, in Tuesday's N.Y. Post. They treated him with a great deal of repesct and mirrored your sentiments ; re the bruhaha.

R.I.P. for a good ballplayer, who got the fuzzy end of the lollipop, and didn't deserve it.
