this makes me super sad. i listened to this dude all summer for 10 years in a row. he was bro.



"NEW YORK -- Phil Rizzuto, the Hall of Fame shortstop during the Yankees' dynasty years and beloved by a generation of fans who delighted in hearing him exclaim "Holy cow!" as a broadcaster, has died. He was 89." - espn.com

even though he was 5'6" i would let him start at shortstop on the boykins baseball squad. there's a 5'5" requirement, son! johnny marr can play right field.
