I was in my senior year of high school when he made his debut. When he hung up his spikes, I was a 35 year old family man. Yesterday, twenty seven years later, I watched his number 1 retired by the Detroit Tigers. Lou Whitaker deserves it.

He deserves more. He should be in the baseball Hall of Fame. Hopefully that will be taken care of in 2023, when his selection is next possible. 

Sweet Lou. I'm happy you're finally getting the accolades you truly merit.
