Bobby Murcer Goes Down Swinging

Posted in Bobby Murcer, New York Yankees on July 12, 2008 by cmsplog


According to WNBC, NY, Yankee great Bobby Murcer has passed away at the age of 62, due to complications from brain cancer. Murcer, who was a broadcaster for the YES Network in recent years, was diagnosed with brain cancer in late 2006. Murcer played for the Yankees from 1965-74 and 1979-83, was a 5 time All-Star. Condolences to his family and his friends. He will be sorely missed from my perspective due to his work on the broadcast booth, something he excelled at.
