My brother had a Matty Alou glove. Sad to see this.

I saw a great documentary on Dominican baseball players from the late 50s, 60s, to a lot of the current players, saw it less than a year ago. A lot of the documentary seemed to be centered on Felipe and Matty Alou, the Alous are quite the family and quite the story. I have a tremendous amount of respect for all of them, their character, hard work, integrity.

RIP Matty!
