The Post-Gazette reports (http://bit.ly/2rQ4NqV ) that the second wife of the late Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman, Margaret Weller-Stargell, decided on the auction, which begins Wednesday.
Dolores Stargell, who was married to Stargell from 1962 to 1983, says she, her children and grandchildren weren’t told about the auction being conducted by SCP Auctions Inc. In a letter on Facebook they say Stargell would want some of his ”lifetime achievements to be on display.
