I’m sure Jerry just got off the phone with Ron before he passed.

Re: Ron Cameron
Interesting about Harry Saferight: he was in the on deck circle three times in 1979, but never got to the box. He had a teammate who made a single appearance: as a pinch runner.
Gotta feel for a guy like that. Good enough to be a brief major leaguer, not good enough to actually play.
He’s no Ike Blessitt, who in his and Ron’s eyes should have been an All Star if not for Billy Martin.

Re: Ron Cameron
Jerry Green was one of Ron’s best guests. I still have his Year of the Tiger book, his account of the ‘68 season. Jerry would occasionally push back on Ron’s nonsense, even cheering on a caller for challenging something ridiculous Ron had said. With news of his death, at 94, will Ron say, “What’s happening? We’re losing too many good people?”
Re: Ron Cameron
Ron's last interview with Jerry Green (4/24/22):

Re: Ron Cameron
Open line first hour. Lance Parrish next hour. Les Cain tomorrow. Ken Holland next Saturday. Something has to go amiss.
Re: Ron Cameron
Ron's (likely) on the move again. To yet another motel. I envision him being feted with a going-away party with every move.
Re: Ron Cameron
Mark from Warren leading-off. The home of Ron's likely new motel (near the Universal Mall).
Re: Ron Cameron
There are some seedy motels near 11 and Dequindre. Ron had better not leave his new briefcase in the car.
