Sad to hear of the passing of Mike Greenwell. He played his whole MLB time with the BoSox, & during his career was feared by many pitchers.RIP

Mike Greenwell was the father of Bo Greenwell and Garrett Greenwell. Remembering his father, Bo wrote on Facebook:

"After a long year a fighting cancer my dad has passed away. It has been a long year for him through alot of pain and suffering. Now he can finally rest in peace. Thank you to everyone who has been keeping him in your thoughts and prayers. Hero’s get remembered, but Legends never died. To the legend Mike Greenwell ❤️"

Bo Greenwell is a former professional baseball outfielder. In a statement reported by Cleveland in 2010, Bo, mentioning his father, said:

"From what I know and what people tell me, I'm the spitting image of my father and I take great pride in that. He played the game hard, played the game the right way and was fearless when he was on the field. And when he walked up to the plate he owned it. And from what I hear I do the same thing, I play the same way."

Mike Greenwell's family has kept a low profile on social media, with very few details publicly known about their personal lives. From photos shared online on Tracy's Facebook page, Bo appears to be a father, while Garrett is reported to have two children with his spouse.

Remembering him, right-handed pitcher Bob Stanley said:

"He was a great teammate and an even better person. He had big shoes to fill in left field, and he did a damn good job. He played hard and never forgot where he came from -- Fort Myers. Just a great guy. We'll all miss him."
