Another Loss

The Yankee family suffered another loss today with the passing of Joe Niekro. Joe spent the bulk of his career with the Houston Astros, but spent a brief time at the end of his career with the Yankees. He played 22 seasons in the bigs and racked up 221 wins and had a career ERA of 3.59. He suffered an aneurysm. He was 61 years young.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his brother Phil, his son Lance, and the entire Niekro family. Godspeed Joe.
