They were just talking about him this morning on the news because today a well known artist started painting a large mural of him in E. LA today..geesh.

And at the office today we were also talking about him, "fernandomania" and also, "Mr October," from the last go-around years ago.

 

[Ziggy]

Sad...he was a gamer.
RIP

RIP…

The story lines for this World Series continue to grow. Fernando pitched against the Yanks in the 1981 series. You best believe the Dodgers will be playing for more than just a World Series win.

 

[DarkHorseRacing]

And right in the cusp of a WS with the Dodgers, that sucks.

 

[4Waters]

NOOOOOO!

I knew he wasn't in the best health lately but was hoping he could see the Dodgers win the World Series this year

 

[was thatguy]

Damn. That really and truly sucks.
I remember we all used to try to imitate him and his eyes.
All we ever managed to do was hit people with the ball.

RIP Legend

 

[RitcheyRch]

Sad news. RIP.

 

[TPC]

He was dapper looking in retirement. Last interview we saw he wasn't looking too good.
Sad, brought lots of fun and energy to the games and was a really good person, very family devoted.

 

[DILLIGAF]

Gave the Giants fits....Usually a very low scoring game for both teams.

RIP

My FIL was good friend’s with Fernando and his family. I’ve met him a handful of times back when they golfed together at Montebello CC. I remember one time sitting there for HOURS drinking Miller Lite on ice listening to him tell stories. Man, 63 is too young.

 

[PRIMO]

El Toro......

Absolutely hate everything about the Dodgers!

But loved watching him pitch back in the day!

RIP!

These are the memories I have. It was a fun time.

 

[NicPaus]

I don't know how many games I went to when he was pitching but it was a lot. We had season tickets and went to majority of the home games. It's been so long I would of thought he was older.

RIP
