Giants Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda has died. We are losing our Hall of Famers. The Giants had two great hitters who were only suitable to play first base, Cepeda and Willie McCovey. I have been to many special games that were graced by the appearance of Willie Mays, Gaylord Perry, Orlando Cepeda, Juan Marichal and Willie McCovey. Now only Marichal is left.
This blow is made worse because it comes so soon after the death of Willie Mays.
I took the photo of the new statue of Orlando Cepeda, on King near Second Street, on 16-September-2008.
