Yep. They're playing a doubleheader. He can play SS one game and 1B the next.

That thought crossed my mind.    I didn't have a date in mind but it would be pretty cool for the Cubs to play a double header this year and dedicate the day to Banks.

BTW   MLB Network is playing a nice tribute to Banks.

Sixty six is too young.
Yep.  Looks like he was lucky to make it that long given his lifestyle.

But that depends on what lifestyle one lives.  His life as a drummer was a hard life

I hear ya but there are folks out there livin' a harder life than a rock and roll drummer.    Sometimes it's simply genetics.

Never a fan but he certainly was a contributor.
Oh that scratchy voice.   Haven't heard about him in decades.
