I noticed this a few hours ago and, though I knew he was in declining health with dementia, have nonetheless been stunned since.

I saw a news item that he also had Lyme Disease and COVID 19.

One of the great players from the Boston Red Sox (1986).

Great pitcher and always carried himself as a class act. RIP. As a Phillies fan, when both Carlton and Seaver were in their primes, those pitching matchups were just tremendous.

I like that the Mets took the field with dirt on their right knee. A classy gesture.
