How Did Denny Doyle Die? Member Of 1975 Boston Red Sox,

On Tuesday, the baseball community learned of the passing of Denny Doyle, a second baseman whose career includes three seasons with the Boston Red Sox. He was 78.

Glasgow, Kentucky native Robert Dennis Doyle made his main league debut with the Philadelphia Phillies in 1970. Before the 1974 season, the Angels acquired him via trade, then on June 14, 1975, he was sent to the Red Sox.

He took over for Doug Griffin at second base, where he hit.310 in 89 games. Mr. Doyle was a starter for all 10 postseason games he played in, and he had at least one hit in nine of them.

In the bottom of the ninth inning of Game 6 of the World Series, with the score tied at 6, Mr. Doyle was positioned at third base when Fred Lynn hit a ball down the left field foul line.

When asked by reporters what he said to Mr. Doyle, third base coach Don Zimmer reportedly said, “No, no, no.” Contrarily, Mr. Doyle believed he heard, “Go, go, go,” from the roar of the Fenway Park crowd.

Carlton Fisk’s famous home drive in the 12th inning was the winning run for the Sox.

Mr. Doyle hit.280 (2-for-30) with two doubles, three runs scored, and one walk in the World Series. He had one strikeout and two walks.

Mr. Doyle spent a total of eight years in the major leagues. During the years 1978–1981, his older brother Brian played infield for a Major League Baseball team. They eventually established the Doyle Baseball School, which has become quite popular in Florida.

Mr. Doyle took his family to celebrate the ballpark’s centennial in 2012.
