RIP Johnny Pesky

The legendary Johnny Pesky dies at 92.

This guy was before my time, obviously.  But growing up, a baseball player or fan knew about his great affiliation with the Red Sox.

He batted in front of Ted Williams, which meant he saw a lot of good pitches.  He made the best of the situation.

He was a fixture in the American League, revered in his home towns of Portland and Boston.
