I heard this piece this AM on WUOM. It brought tears to my eyes–you have captured what Ernie meant to so many of us. God Bless him, and God Bless you for writing this

I believed he did because when a fan caught a foul ball he would say something like, “And a man from Dearborn takes that one home.”

A few years ago we went to the World Tournament of Historic Baseball at Greenfield Village, and Ernie was on hand to call a few innings of a game, which was a real treat. At one point, when a fan caught a fly ball, one of the players yelled, “Hey, Ernie, where’s that guy from?”
