RIP Bobby Brown (the ballplayer)

[HanSenSE]

Former American League president and cardiologist. Oh, yeah, helped the Yankees win four World Series while playing 3B.
Dr. Brown, 4-time champ, AL prez, dies at 96

 

[micropolitan guy]

He had a .439 career batting average and a .500 career on-base percentage in World Series games. Pretty clutch.

 

[goalmouth]

Three WS triples. Korean War vet. Also Tulane Green Wave.

 

[Baron Scicluna]

That quote from him to his future wife about how she should tell her Mom that he was studying to be a cardiologist and tell her Dad that he played third base for the Yankees is awesome.

A life well lived. RIP

They used to always tell the apocryphal story about how him and Yogi were roommates, and Brown would be reading a medical book on one bed and Yogi would be on the other bed reading a comic book.

He did not live in/practice in "the Dallas area."

They used to always tell the apocryphal story about how him and Yogi were roommates, and Brown would be reading a medical book on one bed and Yogi would be on the other bed reading a comic book.

With the follow-up that one night, Brown slammed the medical book shut, and Yogi asked him, "how did your's turn out?"
