Bobby Cox’s fighting spirit will never be forgotten. It was incredible that he managed to crawl to his neighbor’s house to get help when he had his stroke in 2019. Before the Braves went to Philly for the 2023 NLCS, friends and family members were told to prepare their goodbyes. There was a sense he might be gone by the time the team returned to Atlanta. Then, just a few months’ ago, he survived a bout with COVID. He didn’t eat for a few days and then awoke one day and said, “I’m hungry.” He was an incredible man.
