Rest in Peace Kirby!

"Kirby Puckett's going to be all right. Don't worry about me. I'll show up, and I'll have a smile on my face. The only thing I won't have is this uniform on. But you guys can have the memories of what I did when I did have it on." Kirby Puckett

I remember the world series in 1991, not well, but I do remember it. I would have been 6, so the memory is kind of fuzzy. My favorite player was Kirby, I loved him.

Well, I was watching baseball on Sunday, Twins vs. Red Sox (my two favorite teams), the announcers mentioned that Kirby was in the hospital after suffering a massive stroke. I was very worried, and I hoped that he would get better soon. But last night after checking online to see how he was doing, I discovered he passed away. I am very sad about this, and shocked. Yesterday was a sad day in baseball.
