It was reported during tonight's Braves game that Ernie Johnson passed away at the age of 87. He pitched for Boston in 1950 and 1952, continuing with Milwaukee until 1958.
I spoke with him a few years ago about his World War II service and decided to share his recollections.

Up, Up and a Hey!
One of the main reasons I became a Braves fan in the first place.
By every single account, a truly great man.
