Baseball Hall of Famer Duke Snider died Sunday morning at the Valle Vista Convalescent Hospital in Escondido, Calif.. He was 84. Snider died of natural causes, his family said.

He was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y., in 1980 after an 18-year major league career in which he hit 407 home runs.


OMG ... this is VERY sad news for me. Duke was my favorite all-time ballplayer.
