RIP Joe Niekro

[POJO_Risin]

He died of a brain aneurism at 61 last night...

sad really...

he was a better pitcher than many give him credit for...

had a couple of 20 game seasons, and won 220 games in his career...

but he's often overlooked because of Phil...

and that nailfile incident...

RIP Joe...

No love for Joe here, I always enjoyed watching him pitch when he played.

My dad tought me to throw a knuckleball thanks to my questions about the Niekros.
