Joe Morgan won't be down!

[69a100]

Joe Morgan, the Hall of Fame second baseman who became the sparkplug of the Big Red Machine and the prototype for baseball’s artificial turf era, has died. He was 77.
He died at his home Sunday in Danville, California, a family spokesman said Monday. Morgan was suffering from a nerve condition, a form of polyneuropathy.
Just waitin for the racial comment! RIP Joe.

I remember watching the Joe Morgan "chicken wing" when I was a kid. This video around the 0:19 second mark. RIP Joe - you were a really exciting player to watch.

Joe was the missing spark plug in the Reds lineup. The Reds were the winningst team in baseball the entire decade of the 70s and He was a big contributor to that accomplishment. Certainly one of Baseballs all-time Greats.
