After a time when sluggers dishonored their sport with drugs and violence and misbehavior, it's well to remember and honor a slugger who personified the best in the sport, and mankind.

I think that's what I like about Jose Bautista. It's not just the swing, which is epic, even resembling the iconic, but that he's a gentleman in the Killebrew tradition who can elevate baseball as a pastime in the era of mega-bucks.

RIP indeed one of the best power hitters the sport has ever seen. He will be remembered as one of the greatest if not the greatest Twin of all time. Baseball and the world has lost a true larger then life person.
