Sal Bando, an All-Star third baseman and three-time World Series champion with the Oakland Athletics, died Friday after battling cancer, his family said.
Oakland Athletics' Sal Bando slams a double to center field to score teammate Allan Lewis, the winning run in the final game of World Series against the Reds in Cincinnati, Ohio, on, Oct. 22, 1972.
Bando was a sixth-round draft pick of the Kansas City Athletics in 1965. He appeared in 11 games in 1967 and got his real chance at the pros in 1968 as the team moved to Oakland. He played in 1,468 career games with the Athletics and hit .255 with 192 home runs and a .776 OPS. Sal Bando, top, jumps on the heap as the jubilant Athletics whoop it up on the field after beating the Los Angeles Dodgers to win the World Series, on Oct. 17, 1974, in Oakland, California.
