CLEVELAND -- In a nice touch, the Phillies announced today that the late John Vukovich will be inducted into their Wall of Fame on Aug. 10 at The Bank.After a field of 15 candidates was narrowed to five in fan balloting, a selection committee picked Vuke over Darren Daulton, Lenny Dykstra, John Kruk and Gene Mauch. I commend them on their choice.
Unfortunately, I knew Vuke for only a year, but as I've seen since his death March 8, he had a tremendous impact on everyone who knew him.
How will you remember Vuke?
