Long-time Reds announcer and Cincinnati favorite Joe Nuxhall died yesterday.
Here's a previous post on this blog regarding his retirement, and a Reds tribute page here. I recall getting his autograph when I was kid at a local Oktoberfest while standing next to the stench of a limberger cheese stand.
He was active in charities, such as this farm for abused children:
The facility is one of five dreams for Nuxhall, and it will be paid for through contributions made to the Joe Nuxhall Hope Project. Its mission is "to inspire hope in the hearts of children and young people who've had it taken from them."May he rest in peace.
