RIP The Quail, Bill Virdon

Great man. One of those guys who is never a great manager or player, though he was certainly a good one of each, but is just a great baseball guy. Knows his stuff, taught himself to play, great coach throughout his entire life. RIP Bill.

RIP. One of the key players on that '60 World Championship team. You're right MeanJoe, one of the good guys.
