Goodbye Sparky

All of Detroit mourns Sparky, who died Thursday in Thousand Oaks, Calif. Anderson died from complications from dementia, family spokesman Dan Ewald said. A day earlier, Anderson's family said he had been placed in hospice care. He was 76.
Sparky, at his best, made baseball fun. He made it fun for the fans, and he made it fun for the ballplayers. And he made it fun for the ink-stained wretches who chased after the Tigers, listened to his wisdom, and chuckled at his anecdotes.
