Nationals owner Ted Lerner dies at 97
Ted Lerner, owner of the 2019 World Series champion Washington Nationals, has died at 97. According to team spokesperson Jennifer Mastin Giglio, Lerner died Sunday at his Chevy Chase, Maryland, home of complications from pneumonia.
Lerner, a real estate tycoon, was born in 1925, one year after the Washington Senators won the World Series, the last one the city would see until 2019. He was a fan of the team as a child and became an usher at Griffith Stadium (the Senators' home park) because he could almost never afford to buy tickets. He was able to attend the 1937 All-Star Game because, as he told the Washington Post, his ticket was discounted to three cents because he was a student.

She was a class act. Loved her in the Three Musketeers movies. She could act! Plus, her 10,000 years BC outfit helped us young boys through puberty.
Re: Persons of Note Who Have Passed Away
She was more talented than people think. I agree with you that she was great in The Three Musketeers proving she could do comedy. She even parodied herself on an episode of Seinfeld where the producers of her play were afraid to fire her and that when she walked she didn't move her arms.
On a local note, most people, even here in San Diego, don't know she was the morning weather presenter on KFMB television station in the very early 60s. I wasn't living here then but a couple of years ago the station showed clips from their early years and they highlighted her as the weather presenter.

McCarver, champion catcher turned famed broadcaster, dies at 81
Tim McCarver, a two-time World Series champion who became a household name as a highly skilled broadcaster both nationally and in three Major League cities, died on Thursday at the age of 81. The cause of death was heart failure.
McCarver, who made his Major League debut with the Cardinals in 1959, spent seven decades in professional baseball. That included a 21-year Major League playing career before transitioning into an award-winning broadcaster, whom many considered to be baseball’s version of football's John Madden. McCarver had a way of simplifying the game of baseball for the average fan; his use of the English language was impeccable, punctuated by a touch of friendly Southern drawl.
