I was not a Detroit Tigers fan, nor did I listen to any of their broadcasts but I knew of Ernie Harwell.
If you read some of the stories about him today following his death, you may know a bit about him too.
“I know into whose arms I’m gonna fall,” Harwell told writer Mitch Albom in one of their last conversations. I’ve the sense it was a safe, easy and comfortable catch for the Holy Fielder.
