Default Al Kaline's passing.

So sad to hear about the passing of Detroit Tiger legend Al Kaline. The Hall of Fame outfielder was 85.

Always great to fans seeking his autograph, Kaline was a classy figure who was beloved and respected throughout the game.

Insanely underrated player and by all accounts a great man too. I got him twice through TTM. First time was years back when he was in the Tigers front office and the second was last year when I paid to get him TTM:

I hadn't heard about HOF Al Kaline's passing.
I'm really very sorry to hear this. Great guy & great athlete!
RIP Mr. Tiger!

Just got back a TTM auto from him last week. First met him in 1966 in NYC at visiting team hotel. last time was at a MLB winter meeting maybe 7 years ago. While most people didn't feel the need to wear name tags, he wore one. The world will miss him.
