Former Brooklyn Dodger, Detroit Tiger and Michigan Wolverine Don Lund at a meeting of the SABR chapter named after him. Camera: Nikon D70

Don Lund passed away a couple days ago after a long and worthy life. My first acquaintance--if you can call it that--with Don Lund was broadcast mentions of him when he was the player development director for the 1960s Detroit Tigers, for whom he'd played in the early 50s. But he spent his life mainly as a University of Michigan Wolverine, first as a star athlete, later as baseball coach (his 1962 team won a national championship), and mostly as Assistant Athletic Director. I took this photo with my (then) brand new Nikon D70 at a 2005 meeting of the Ann Arbor chapter of the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR)--the "Don Lund Chapter."
