The Cardinal great passed away at 83. He was part of the lineup I grew up with, Shannon, Maxville, Javier, Flood, Brock and Gibby. He played in the first game I attended in 1967. After retiring he announced Cardinal games for 50 years. Interesting trivia, Mike hit the last home run at Sportsman’s Park and the first at Busch stadium.
