Former Angels All-Star, Postseason Hero, Dies at 78
Bob Boone, who won four Gold Glove Awards in seven seasons as the California Angels' catcher in the 1980s, died according to multiple reports. He was 78.
Boone's former Philadelphia Phillies teammate Greg Luzinski and former Cincinnati Reds GM Jim Bowden, who hired Boone to manage in 2000, both posted on Twitter/X about Boone's death late Monday.
In December 1981, the Angels acquired Boone in a trade with the Phillies. From 1982-88, he played an integral role in the team's longest sustained run of success to that point in franchise history — including three 90-win seasons and two American League Championship Series appearances.
