filkertomOne of the classic acts of baseball has left us. Phil Rizzuto, five-time All-Star shortstop for the New York Yankees and legendary broadcaster, has passed away at the age of 89.
In his honor, let's [a] recall our favorite baseball calls -- mine would be Ernie Harwell's "Let's listen to the bedlam, here at Tiger Stadium!" when the Tigers won the pennant in 1968 -- and [b] cue up Meat Loaf's "Paradise By The Dashboard Light" (see, you do know what he sounds like).
