Bob Horner passes away at age 68

Bob Horner passed away yesterday at age 68.   Horner is my favorite all-time baseball player.  He resonated with me when I started watching the Braves, and I watched a ton of games back in the day.  I did a look back at him on the blog in 2016 and you can see it here.  As players of our youth age, we expect these things but it's still not fun knowing they are gone.  It's a sad day for me.

I even had a customer Bob Horner figure made.

One of my favorite cards of his.
