Bobby Bragan, a former catcher and infielder for seven seasons for the Brooklyn Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies, died Thursday at the age of 92 in Fort Worth, TX according to a report by MLB.com. Bragan also managed for seven seasons with the Pirates, Indians and Braves.

Bragan was extremely generous to fans and collectors, quickly responding to interview and TTM requests. Another "walking encyclopedia" gone. - RIP

    He encouraaged Hank Aaron to steal more bases during his time managing the Braves.

    He was hale and hearty into his 80's.
