In my 6 decades of watching baseball, there was no better center fielder in the American League while Paul Blair was roving the outfield for the Orioles.
Mickey Stanley, the Tigers CF in 1968, won a couple of Gold Gloves, the others always seemed to land in Blair's glove, just like thousands of lost hits did.
My thoughts and prayers for the Blair family.
May God Bless Paul Blair.
