R.I.P. Bud Harrelson (June 6, 1944 – January 10, 2024)

When I was a kid back in the 1960s and 1970s, I was a New York Mets fan, mainly because we lived closer to Shea Stadium than to Yankee Stadium. I attended several games with my father and friends. At one game, I was able to get the autographs of Bud Harrelson and Ed Kranepool, both Mets. (I no longer have those autograph.) I still have a box of baseball cards from the late 1960s and the early 1970s. I will have to check if I have his card.
