Jim Brosnan died
last week at the
age of 84. I spoke at Cooperstown last month on Brosnan and the St. Louis Cardinals tour of Japan in 1958 - based on an article I hope to publish soon that was, in turn, based on a piece written
here. I had also
written about him a few years ago, and I once again recommend reading all of his works (including
this, which I picked up in downtown Coop) and learning a little bit more about the man.
