Another trio before I head to the hills to ski the day away! I had no idea who Dick Brown was, but turns out to be a rather sad story. He played nine seasons, finishing up in 1965. He was projected to be a starter in 1966, but was diagnosed with a brain tumor, had surgery, and it came back a few months later. He died at the age of 35. That's just hard to hear, because we all know somebody like that. I was an Air Force pilot for twenty years and saw three good friends die, way too young. When you are having a crappy day, and then you think about guys like that, it puts it all into a bit of perspective, because their loved ones would have loved to have them around, even if they were having a crappy day. So a toast to Dick Brown. And David Wyatt, Aaron George, and Dave Cooley. A catcher and three military pilots who died way too young...
