@RingsideSeatMag Was ringside that night, still one of my top 5 fights I covered

The trials she covered were legendary, from Sirhan Sirhan to Manson to OJ. Her coverage of those trials was also legendary in our business.

BREAKING: Linda Deutsch, one of America’s best-known trial reporters and a special correspondent for AP, has died. Deutsch covered dozens of the most significant trials in the U.S., including Charles Manson, O.J. Simpson and Michael Jackson. She was 80. https://t.co/xZfoUxnLSj

@MatthewAguilar5 @CaesarsPalace Intimate, yes, it was a converted tennis pavilion. Smelled like cigar smoke, steamed hot dogs, sweat and Caesar’s Woman perfume. Intoxicating. And yes I was ringside for that fight.

@bruce_arthur Some fine writing here, I’m awarding you the gold

[KNBR @KNBR]

Orlando Cepeda and Willie Mays.

Gone too soon but never forgotten 🧡🖤

@MatthewAguilar5 @MuhammadAli Ali called that card The Soul Brothers vs. The Quarry Brothers.

[Tim Dahlberg @timdahlberg]

@MatthewAguilar5 It was brutally hot ringside for that fight, I remember that and the buzz about them finding the bodies of the Spilotro brothers earlier that day

Take 2 minutes out of your day for the great Reggie Jackson to give you a powerful history lesson

I will always be thankful to the Peter Magowan group for making the address of the ballpark 24 Willie Mays Plaza, and building that beautiful statue. Willie spent the last quarter century of his life having that honor.

One thing that the Giants incredible team of broadcasters consistently does is make sure we never forget that they're human, we're human, and we're watching a game played by humans.

Flem couldn't have done a better job with a heartbreaking situation. He let us in.

[Larry Krueger @sportslarryk]

I’d like to see #MLB retire Willie Mays’ #24 to honor the greatest player the game has ever seen. Nobody should ever wear #24 again in a Major League Baseball Game.

[Baseball Quotes @BaseballQuotes1]

This conversation between Willie Mays and Vin Scully is amazing ❤️

[Tim Dahlberg @timdahlberg]

@BruceTrampler I disagree. He wasn’t one of the great players ever, he was the greatest player ever.

[Tim Dahlberg @timdahlberg]

@timkawakami Best Mays piece I’ve read today

[Tim Dahlberg @timdahlberg]

@annkillion @timkawakami Greatest player ever in my opinion.

[Tim Dahlberg @timdahlberg]

@DanRafael1 I’d have to count them up but my guess is I was ringside for maybe 80 of those 100.

[Tim Dahlberg @timdahlberg]

@KevinI I was just thinking about that when I heard the news. I think that was the TPC course. My only encounter with him and it was a brief one
