Prayers for him.
Hospital staff might be thankful he can’t speak. He was one of baseball’s all-time leaders in ejections.

Prayers for him and his family...
That pitching rotation is arguably the best of all time, maybe after the Dodgers of the 60s (Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale)
I remember too. She later denied that he had hit her; that it had just been a big shouting match, and she wished she had handled it differently.
All I remember is going to World Series game 6 and watching the Braves become World Champions for the first time.
“All I remember is the time his wife called 911 for spousal abuse.”
I remember that episode too. He put up no defense, admitted he was guilty, took responsibility. He and his wife have been married for a number of years after that. There have been NO episodes like that in their lives since. Not excusing such things but good people can make mistakes. If all of us who did something wrong got struck down there sure wouldn’t be many around!
Is that all you can remember about Bobby Cox?
