If you're a fan of baseball history and of Montreal history in particular, the story of the Montreal Royals is a fascinating one. Baseball was a big part of Montreal's sports landscape until economics ruptured it in the 1990s.

Now this is a sad story for baseball fans who listened to live Expos broadcasts in the 1980s. Brooklyn Dodgers legend (and one of the best sluggers in history) Duke Snider has passed away. He and Dave Van Horn remain one of the best broadcast team I've ever listened to in any sport, anywhere.
A strong Montreal flavor on ESPN today.
