Amazing, two Dave Roberts- both baseball players, dying on the same day.

What are the chances.

He's a former Astro too. Sad day. He was a great TTMer and great to the fans. RIP.

Dave lived across the river from me in WV. By all accounts he was a great guy. He called my wife once because he was friends with her coworker and was told that we were big Pirates fans.
