I remember growing up and watching Kirby at the Metrodome. Even though I hate the Twinkies (go White Sox) I got to say, he was fun to watch and had that appeal that many ball players today just don't have. Not to mention he always seemed to smile and be enjoying the game.

Sucks to lose someone that young, but at least he got into the Hall of Fame while he was still alive to see it.

He was a force. I didn't get the details of what caused the stroke although he was a big guy.
