Hall of Fame second baseman Joe Morgan has died. And to his star-powered teammates, Joe Morgan was a driving force, too. โ€œJoe Morgan was quite simply the best baseball player I played against or saw,โ€ Reds Hall of Fame catcher Johnny Bench texted to The Associated Press. โ€œSmall in stature like his idol Nellie Fox, Joe played every game at the highest level. โ€ณBench probably had the most raw baseball ability of any of us,โ€ Morgan said before his Hall of Fame induction.
