    I can't believe he was only 76. He looked that old 20 years ago.

    Nope...it was about arguably the best manager in the big leagues during the 70's and 80's. Torre owned the 90's and early 2000's...I dunno who owns the most recent 6-8 years.

    He was the same age as my dad. I remember in the mid 70's being amazed at how much older he looked than dad.

    Rip Sparky. One of baseball's best.

    The guy was all about baseball, in the greatest and most gracious way.
