He's the embodiment of everything right with baseball. His ethic is insane and rigid. He's a pro and will get into the HOF on his first vote at 100%.

I was watching early this morning and did get weepy watching. Especially the scene when he was greeting players at the dugout and former Marlin, Dee Gordon humbly bowed to the Master who immediately waved the bow off and hugged him. Who is cutting onions in here?
