Joe Morgan
would have been 83 today
September 19th, 1943 — October 11th, 2020Considered the greatest second baseman of all time. Sorry. That's all we got. Sports figures with NO scandals are just impossible. The guy was even accused of being a drug mule, and that turned out to be completely false. If we come up with something, we'll let you know.
Mike Royko
would have been 94 today
September 19th, 1932 — April 29th, 1997Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Owen.
Owen who?
0-and-14. That's how the Cubbies started the baseball season this year. Then this guy, the so-called Heart and Soul of Chicago, suddenly kicks the bucket. Coincidence? We don't think so.
Shooby Taylor
would have been 97 today
September 19th, 1929 — June 4th, 2003They called him "The Human Horn". Insert joke about getting blown here.

James Lipton
would have been 100 today
September 19th, 1926 — March 2nd, 2020The fact that he was a pimp in Paris for a time seems to have been overshadowed by his skill at interviewing actors.
Duke Snider
would have been 100 today
September 19th, 1926 — February 27th, 2011The only thing more impressive than his baseball record was the fact that he made it out of Compton High School alive.
Willie Pep
would have been 104 today
September 19th, 1922 — November 5th, 2006Well, that doesn't quite work anymore.
Emil Zatopek
would have been 104 today
September 19th, 1922 — November 21st, 2000There once was a fleet-footed Czech
whose name was Emil Zatopek.
Like a good little Pinky,
he won at Helsinki,
and then was too dumb to defect.
Roger Angell
would have been 106 today
September 19th, 1920 — May 20th, 2022Gone for Good.
Lewis Powell
would have been 119 today
September 19th, 1907 — August 25th, 1998This Nixon Supreme Court appointee belonged to whites-only organizations and kept gay sex illegal. What a dick.
Sarah Delany
would have been 137 today
September 19, 1889 — January 25th, 1999The worms are having their say, now.
