Former Mariner and broadcaster Dave Henderson dead at 57

Sad news this morning:

Dave Henderson, the gregarious man known as Hendu, died Sunday, one month after getting a kidney transplant. He will be tremendously missed.

I was too young to remember Dave Henderson the Mariner player. 4 years old is just a little too young to grasp who the shapes you cheer for 5 times a year on a blurry black and white tv are. My first memory of Hendu is watching Ken Burns' Baseball when it first aired in 1994.

It's game 6 of the 1986 World Series, though they don't know it, everything is about to go to shit for the Red Sox.
