R.I.P.

Buck O'Neil, who broke Major League Baseball's managerial color line 15 years after Jackie Robinson broke the player's, died last night. He was 94 years old.

Sadly, it is probably only now that he'll be voted into the Hall of Fame, having only missed by one vote.

"God's been good to me. They didn't think Buck was good enough to be in the Hall of Fame. That's the way they thought about it and that's the way it is, so we're going to live with that. Now, if I'm a Hall of Famer for you, that's all right with me. Just keep loving old Buck. Don't weep for Buck. No, man, be happy, be thankful."
