    Two of the best. Weaver passed away on a cruise for Orioles fans at age 82, and The Man died at his home surrounded by family at age 92. R.I.P.

    Never saw either play but Musial was I think a 22 time All Star. I think only Willie Mays has more. Kind of crazy that both died on the same day... I thinkI saw that the former University of Miami baseball coach also passed away this weekend. I think he won like 4 national titles.

    I was able to meet stan and bob gibson about 8 years ago and had them sign a ball for me. Love that whole era of baseball. I love watching the old documentaries etc.
