Phillies broadcaster Harry Kalas died today at age 73, in the broadcast booth just hours before today's game. He was the voice of the Phillies since 1971, a Hall of Fame inductee and one of the greatest announcers in baseball history. Today is a sad day for baseball fans. Harry the K will be missed.
A cool tribute I read about was Victorino, Stairs, and some other players gathering in the dugout before the game (which I'm surprised they played, but at least they won it for Harry) to share a cigarette. Harry was notoriously always smoking, and Victorino thought it would be a good way to pay some respect. Thank you, Victorino.
