Gone of pancreatic cancer tonight. One of the absolute best to ever pitch. Seaver, Brock, and now Gibson. Tough year for Cards' fans with the last two. I think I'll yield the floor to them, because this is a gut punch for them, and because I never saw him pitch. I'll just post a video of his 17 strikeout performance in Game 1 of the 1968 World Series against the Tigers, which happened exactly 52 years ago today, and an iconic picture that demonstrates his formidable mound presence. RIP, and condolences to his family and friends.
