Expos Pitcher Lea Dies

I was only nine but I remember listening on the radio to Montreal Expos pitcher Charlie Lea pitch a no-hitter in 1981. Lea was part of a solid pitching staff that characterized the Expos of the 1980s.

Lea died suddenly of a suspected heart-attack at the age of, get this, 54.

Crazy.

Beautiful picture of Lea and Gary Carter. The golden era of Montreal Expos baseball.
