Cleveland Indians Great BOB FELLER Dies at 92
Bob Feller
Indians and basefall fans everywhere mourn the loss of one of the greatest righthanded pitchers in the history of the game, Bob "Rapid Robert" Feller. He had battled leukemia and recently pneumonia then moved a hospice in Cleveland finally passing of acute leukemia. Bob in the 30's and 40's was one of the most dominate pitchers of the time.
Shown here by this video link:
Being an Indians fan most my life, I have come to love Bob Feller for all he has done for our country, served four years, and what he did playing baseball. But, as a retired Hall of Fame player Bob stayed in the game he loved and continued to give to the fans.
Thanks Bob you will be missed!
