Rest in peace, Scooter. Baseball will always sound like Phil Rizzuto to me. Per King Kaufman, Vic Raschi once said his best pitch was any one the batter hit Rizzuto's way, a story I particularly like because during the "The Bronx is Burning" days I was a student in Geneseo, where Raschi owned a liquor store. That's the only World Series ring I've ever seen on someone's hand, and it was a jolt the first time I caught a glimpse of it and realized who the guy that was ringing me up was.
