    He was a popular player here in Houston. Had some excellent years but the move to the new ballpark with the short porch in left really did a number on him mentally.

    Rumors that he smothered to death in his sleep are not true!

    He never got wet in rain storm. He never lacked shade in the August heat. He was always :D
