fightingsioux4life Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 A legend has been taken from us much too early. Kirby Puckett died this evening from a massive stroke at the tender age of 45. He was a first-ballot Hall of Famer and one of the best clutch players ever to play the game. His performance in Game 6 of the 1991 World Series was one of the best ever. If you wanted to win a ball game, he was one guy you wanted in your dugout. Every time he stepped to the plate, there was a sense of anticipation and excitement. My prayers go out to his family, friends and former teammates. Does anyone else have any memories or thoughts of Puckett? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
