Lee May
MLB 1st Baseman, All-Star, Big Bopper.
March 23, 1943 – July 29, 2017.
Aged 74 years.

Most recognized for: A renowned slugger and frequent DH/pinch hitter, Mr. May was often the guy who hit the game-winning home run or RBI. As a Cincinnati Red, his was the last ball to go over the wall at Crosley Field’s final game. He also made quite a name for himself in Baltimore and has been inducted into both the Orioles’ and Reds’ Halls of Fame… the latter of the two being the only one that means a sh!t.
