1979: The day that Thurman Munson was killed


As I recall, the Yankees had a day off.  Also, the first place Orioles were scheduled to play a weekend series in New York.

Then we got the news that Thurman Munson had been killed in a plane crash.  It was crushing to say the least.


Munson was a great catcher and ranks with some of the great Yankees of all time.
