He was 79. Nuxhall died Thursday night while hospitalized for treatment of pneumonia, the team said. He was awaiting surgery to insert a pacemaker, and had been slowed by a recurrence of cancer since September. Quote

eastkybass Posted November 18, 2007 Posted November 18, 2007 Working nights I listened to most of the Reds games on the radio so I heard alot of him and really missed it when he cut back his schedule. I hated to hear of his passing RIP Lefty. Quote
