A Bit of History Passes
Ernie Koy played for a short time in the major leagues, but was involved in a bit of history. He passed away on New Year's day.
He hit a three-run homer in his first at-bat in the majors and finished his career average with a .279 average, 36 home runs and 260 RBIs. He played in the first televised baseball game and the first night game at Ebbets Field.
My thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Ernie Koy and his 2 sons were all fine football players at U of Texas.
