Baltimore native Frank Deford died this past Sunday at his home in Key West, Florida. Deford is considered one of the great sportswriters and commentators of all time.
He was 78 years old.
Deford also had running commentary on NPR and was a correspondent on HBO's "Real Sports."
Brett Hollander re-aired two interviews he conducted with Deford in recent years on Tuesday night.
