He also did a funny comic strip called "Scroogie," which was -not surprisingly - about the antics of a major league ballplayer.

The story said he died at the home of his son, country music singer Tim McGraw.

I always thought it interesting that Tug and Tim had such different career choices and were both so incredibly successful in their choices.

I'm waiting for shk's comments, especially after the Phillies' long time GM, "Pope" Paul Owens passed away just last week.

With the Vet going down next month this is not a good time to be a Phillies fan.

Sigh.

the phhillies winning the series in '80 was my single greatest fan memory as a youth. there were many memorable moments to that unbelievable season but in the end there are 2 that stick out and they both involved tug.

the first was obviously striking out willie wilson to end the game and the second was the parade. when the team rolled into jfk stadium, tug was holding up a copy of the philadelphia daily news that had a simple headline on the front cover "WE WIN!"...

this coming a week after the phils lost one of the best and classiest baseball men around, paul owens. it's been a tough week for sure...
