Reflections on Joe Nuxhall

I just found out that Joe Nuxhall died last night from complication with pneumonia. Nuxhall was the youngest pitcher in Major League history joining the Cincinnati Reds at the age of 15. But, most people remember him as the "Ol' Left-hander" who worked the Reds radio broadcast booth for forty years. I grow up listening to Nuxhall and Marty Brenneman on WLW in Cincinnati. I know that every kid who listened to their team on the radio will say this, but I can't imagine baseball without those two voices. There are so many memories of listening to Marty and Joe summer nights. I know that he'll be missed in Cincinnati.
