RIP NY Yankees great Whitey Ford

"Chairman of the Board". Gone at 91 years young.

2020 hasn't been fun. We've lost quite a few sports heros....not to mention what's happened with the pandemic... Stay prayed up Boneyard family...

Such a great nick name.
 
Imagine a pitcher who expected to - and more often than not did - pitch beyond the 5th inning. He didn't worry about pitch counts or getting his team to the 5th inning for the bullpen. And, a rough outing or two didn't send him to the IL for "tightness in his forearm" (aka, the pitching equivalent of benching him).
