Valenzuela‘s death hit me a little bit. Fernandomania was awesome. It really took over the baseball world and was must watch tv.

Even disliking the Dodgers you couldn’t help rooting for him.

And Mark Fidrych died way too young. That was also quite a phenomenon.

I remember my aunt and her boyfriend were huge Braves fans then. They lived in Florida. This was when WTBS was in the process of becoming the "Superstation" and airing all the Braves games.

I remember them talking about "Ferdinand" and dreading when he was pitching, so it had to be early 80s.

I was not aware that he had died until I saw it here in the zone. I knew his health had taken a turn for the worse here lately. RIP
