Let's hope that many present professional athletes are learning about what it takes to be a quality role model. Be a good person first, treat all people decently, then worry about the stats and money. Thanks for all memories Harmon. What a great life.

I think one more home run should be added to his record. He made it home.

How many times did Bert Blyleven refer to being to himself being "Hall of Famer" Bert Blyleven. Obviously Bert did not learn how to be a humble man, of which Harmon was.

The example set by Killebrew is good for everyone, not just "today's ballplayers". RIP Harmon.
