Loved growing up with Richie as a broadcaster. Wish I was old enough to see him as a player as he was my dads favorite.

One of my favorite moments with Ashburn as a broadcaster was during a game (can't remember the particular year) where the Phils pitchers were so bad that he remarked to his partner Harry Kalas that "the pitching coach is making so many trips to the mound that they're going to have to issue him frequent flyer miles"!
