As an Indians fan, he has left behind one helluva legacy. A common player in the '50s and '60s when he played or the Tribe, his son is anything but common in the eyes of Indians fans. The way Terry involved his dad in the community, Indians fans were able to connect well with the whole family. They've embraced Cleveland. For those of you that don't know, Tito and Terry released their own pasta sauce last year that has been sold locally. Not sure if it's still in stores, but you can buy it online.

I obviously never saw Tito play, but I did see him in person throw out the first pitch in the 2016 World Series.
RIP Tito.
