Remembering Ralph Houk

Ralph Houk passed away today – he was 90-years old.
Our own Joseph Maloney did a nice feature on “The Major” last month. Click here to see it.
Many, many, years ago, Houk named his boat “Thanks Yanks” – since it was paid for with Yankees World Series players shares. Today, I hope, that the Yankees and many of their fans, say “Thanks” to Ralph for being part of many good things during his time in Yankeeland.
Some stats on Houk’s career as a big league manager.
Wow, members of the Yankee family are dropping like flies. Hopefully all of this sadness and sorrow can be repaid with some rememberances on the dais at City Hall come World Series time.
