Hall of Fame second baseman Joe Morgan, a key member of the Cincinnati Reds' famed Big Red Machine, died Sunday. He was 77.
Morgan died at his home Sunday in Danville, California, family spokesman James Davis said in statement Monday.
He had struggled with various health issues in recent years, including a nerve condition, a form of polyneuropathy.

Joe Morgan was also an announcer with hall-of-fame broadcaster Jon Miller for the SF Giants (also both working together on ESPN I think), and also played for them.
