RIP Willie Mac
Willie McCovey passed away today at 80. He and the other Willie were my favorites as a kid. I met him a few times and he was a very nice, humble man. A true class act. I'm actually choked up by this. He was a big part of my boyhood.
One story: I went to a game at Candlestick in which he hit a home run over the right field wall into the parking lot. (before they enclosed the stadium) The next day a class-mate claimed that the ball broke his father's windshield. I didn't believe him.
