RIP

I had Ryno on my Rotisserie League team in 1984, and loved him as a ballplayer ever since.

yeah I was actually watching the Phillies when they announced it. I was surprised I saw him several times in person when he played for the Cubs and when he managed both the pigs and the Phils.  A funny story, I was at a pigs game on autograph night, when I was walking in one of the pigs player  [MIchael Schwimmer]  yelled to me,  don't you want my autograph. I said no I'm heading to Sandberg's spot He's a hall of famer. He just laughed. https://www.si.com/mlb/2018/09/04/michael-schwimer-big-league-advance-minor-league-baseball  https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/sandbry01.shtml
