Larry Shepard, a longtime minor league pitcher in the 1940s and 50s who made it to the Show after his playing career, died April 5. He was 2 days past his 92nd birthday.
Shepard managed the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1968-69, and became a key coach for Sparky Anderson's vaunted Big Red Machine teams of the 1970s.

Dave,
If there is ever a fantasy "point out dead people" league, you will totally be the first pick in the draft.

It would be cool if Dave posted guys when they are born who are going to be future stars.

Well these guys are on the radar.

Wasn't there a website called You Bet Their Life, where people would bet on famous people dying during the year?

Larry was a decent pitching coach for the Phillies before he took the Buccos. In those days, every manager in Pittsburgh was interim until Danny Murtaugh returned from retirement.
