Death of Tony Conigliaro Shocks Boston Fans
Family and friends mourn the former Red Sox outfielder Tony C Conigliaro who died from kidney failure and pneumonia at 45 after a long illness following a 1967 facial injury. He hit 100 career homers by 22 and played mainly with Boston from 1964 to 1968 and briefly in 1975 before working as a sportscaster and in other ventures. The tragedy of his career ending early, his comeback year of 1969 with 36 homers and 116 RBIs, and remarks from Red Sox officials reflect a resonant sports figure remembered for talent and resilience.
