  1. If you had Ichiro crossing paths with Kelvin Torve…BINGO! Mark Simon amasses an oral history on the Hall of Famer’s defense… https://www.sportsinfosolutions.com/2025/01/23/oral-history-ichiro-suzukis-defensive-legacy/

  4. Rocky Colavito, the epitome of Cleveland baseball for a generation, 91.
  5. Bill Melton, 1971 AL home run champ, 79.
  6. 1970 NL batting champ and write-in All-Star starter Rico Carty, 85.
  7. I'm the Grandy vote. Damned if I'll let him be shut out.
  8. Ferrara was the 10th consecutive strikeout for Tom Seaver on April 22, 1970 — and the Padre who accounted for San Diego’s lone run before Tom totally locKed in to defeat them historically, 2-1.
  9. Doug Bird, Royals closer pre-Quisenberry, 74.
  10. Rudy May, dependable MFY pitcher in two stints (though forever an Angel in my baseball card mind), 80.
  11. Luis Tiant has died at age 83. As singular a pitcher in his time as there was.
  12. [tweet] [/tweet] Ozzie’s a member of the Mets Latin American Hall of Fame. He suited up in No. 17 one night during 2018’s last homestand as served as an honorary coach. Ozzie Virgil, call your sister. https://metsinsider.mlblogs.com/new-york-mets-name-ozzie-virgil-and-juan-alicea-to-newly-created-latin-american-hall-of-fame-d3685e046029
  13. Pablo Reyes transcends his DFA status, is outrighted to Syracuse.
  14. Tylor Megill has been optioned to clear space for Paul Blackburn.
  15. Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda, 86.
  16. Maria Leiter, mom of Al, 97. https://www.app.com/story/news/local/people/2024/06/11/maria-leiter-matriarch-of-famed-baseball-family-was-a-model-parent-to-al-leiter-and-siblings/74036497007/
  17. Sean Burroughs, 43. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/05/sean-burroughs-passes-away.html
  18. Oisk addressed our NY Giants Preservation group over Zoom a couple of years ago. Generous with his time, his memories and his graciousness. The phrase “all class” comes to mind.
  19. One-two punch of passings. [tweet] [/tweet]
  20. Ken Holtzman, Cubs and A's stalwart, 78. Won more games than Sandy Koufax, if you get my MOT drift. Still haven't forgiven him for doubling off Matlack in the World Series.
  21. Executive Larry Lucchino, 78. https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/larry-lucchino-dies-boston-red-sox/
  22. Orioles owner Peter Angelos, 94.
  23. Bill Plummer, backup catcher behind Johnny Bench on two world championship Reds teams, 76.
  24. Two Pirates from the Cobra era have passed of late: pitcher Larry Demery, 70, and Ed Ott, killer of Felix Millan's North American career, 72.
  25. U.L. Washington, Royals shortstop recognizable by his toothpick, 70. Hit .364 in the heroic slaying of the MFYs in the 1980 ALCS.
