Willie Stargell played 21 seasons all with the Pittsburgh Pirates. He was one of the most feared power hitters of all time hitting 475 home runs in his career. Stargell won two World Series with the Pirates in 1971 and 1979. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1988 on his first ballot.

Today's Must Read is a compelling read. I highly recommend Kevin Kernan and "Posey & Munson HOF., written at BallNine.com. Kernan is an experienced author, a wonderful storyteller and his analysis of HOF 2027 contender's Buster Posey & Thurman even interests Yankee Hater fans. That is saying something! What are your thoughts about electing either the Giant's Posey or the Yankee's Munson to the Hall of Fame in 2027? Please enjoy Kevin Kernan's storytelling. I did!
