Extra sad when people about whom I feel obligated to type something on the occasion of their death die, because I seldom have anything to add. Now Orlando Cepeda, one of the first baseball stars from Puerto Rico, has passed to the Candlestick in the sky, where he, Willie Mays & Willie McCovey are probably freezing in the wind. The Giant sluggers of my youth (& perhaps my youth itself) are history.Orlando Cepeda, the slugging Hall of Fame first baseman nicknamed ‘Baby Bull,’ dies at 86
