Lest we forget: Margaret Whitton

December 6, 2016

Perhaps best known for her portrayal of the avaricious owner of the Cleveland Indians in Major League, Ms. Whitton died on Sunday at the age of 67. Here’s her obituary in the New York Times by Richard Sandomir, who has moved from from his previous  post as the sports media columnist to the “dead beat.”

Jonathan Knight wrote a very fun book that will tell you more: The Making of Major League: A Juuuust a Bit Inside Look at the Classic Baseball Comedy.
