Kiner played 10 seasons in the major leagues, most with the Pittsburgh Pirates, hitting 369 homers, with 1,015 RBI and a .279 career average. He's in the Hall of Fame. In 1962 when the Mets came into the league, along with Lindsey Nelson and Bob Murphy, Kiner would switch from Television to radio broadcasts of the games. His post-game show called Kiners Korner became a major staple in New York, for generations of Mets fans. Kiner was still active last season, popping into the booth for his expert analysis and storytelling. More detail on Kiner at The Daily News
