RIP stan the man: some key numbers

Stan Musial died at age 92 - he was married 71 years.

Hall of Fame baseball player Stan Musial died on Saturday, January 19, 2013, at age 92.

Just a few numbers to consider:

22 seasons in the major leagues (1941-1963), all with Saint Louis
3,630 hits - 4th all time
1815 hits at home
1815 hits on road
3,026 games - 6th all time
6,134 total bases - 2nd all time
20 straight years as an all star
3 NL MVPS

But perhaps the most impressive number and the true measure of his greatness.

71 years married

A tip of the hat and shout out to the legend known by his fans as "Stan the Man"!
