He didn't quite have the fire in his belly last time I heard him either. He had lost a lot of weight last year trying to manage his diabetes, & looked a little rough. During the off-season he lasped into a coma for a few days, & when he awoke w/his whole family standing around he said, "Where the hell am I, & what the hell are all you people doing here?!"
Classic Skip. RIP Harry Carey Jr.
