Rabbi Jason Miller of of Congregation T’chiyah in Oak Park, Mich., hosts a blog which includes the occasional sports piece. In this one, dated Oct. 2, he pays tribute to legendary Tigers broadcaster Ernie Harwell, who was recently diagnosed with inoperable cancer.

Harwell, 91, has spent more than 40 of his 55 years in broadcasting covering the Tigers. He was interviewed by author and sportswriter Mitch Albom (Tuesdays with Morrie, The Five People You Meet in Heaven, etc.) at a local fundraiser.
