Hall of Fame baseball player Stan Musial died on Saturday, January 19, 2013, at age 92.
Just a few numbers to consider:
- 22 seasons in the major leagues (1941-1963), all with Saint Louis
- 3,630 hits – 4th all time
- 1815 hits at home
- 1815 hits on road
- 3,026 games – 6th all time
- 6,134 total bases – 2nd all time
- 20 straight years as an all star
- 3 NL MVPS
- 3 World Series championships as a player
But perhaps the most impressive number and the true measure of his greatness.
71 years married to the same woman.
A tip of the hat and shout out to the legend known by his fans as “Stan the Man”!
