This sucks. I don't know if I ever heard a negative comment made about him. One of my fondest memories was going to the doubleheader in which they retired his number. As much as Detroit is known for Ernie announcing on the radio, if you're my age, you grew up with Al and George Kell doing the games on television. I can still hear both of them clear as day.

One of those stories that makes everyone say 'yeah right' - my mother-in-law, who is 94, was fresh out of teacher's college (Marymount) and teaching middle school in Baltimore - Kaline was a student in her first class.

When I saw the topic I thought it was a joke thread about batteries.
