We spent the day going through boxes of memories today. This wonderful photo is from the 1964 @Topps Rookie of the Year award event. That baby-faced guy in the bottom left is the great Tony Oliva. Dick respected him so much.
Heartfelt congratulations to the great Tony Olivia and Jim Kaat and the families of Gil Hodges, Buck O’Neil and Bud Fowler. All very deserving Hall of Famers. Thanks for all the support from everyone. We will pick ourselves up, dust off and get back in the box
We mistakenly forgot to include the family of Minnie Minoso and the #WhiteSox family to this original tweet. No disrespect intended. I assure you Dick loved Minnie. A LOT.
With sadness in our hearts, we need to share that Dick passed away this afternoon at his home in Wampum
This sounds like a great idea! @JoshGibson_1911

Happy 245th Birthday to the all Marines out there, especially my dear friend Carlos May #SemperFi
If I’m in a #Dodgers uniform - them pulling Snell was the best thing that could happen right now #WorldSeries
Yesterday the #DA15 team surprised me with our brand new “Dick Allen Legacy Card Project” poster. It has 75 custom baseball cards dating back to 1951.
Thanks @MillburgCards for your continued passion and friendship. You can purchase your poster at our shop here: shop.spreadshirt.com/da15/da…
Warm Birthday wishes to Al Oliver.... @Alscoop16 played 28 games for the #Phillies in 1984
This has been a tough stretch... now I hear we lost Joe Morgan. One of the best there ever was #RIPJoeMorgan
