Davis dies at age 69
BURBANK, Calif. — Willie Davis, the Los Angeles Dodgers’ speedy center fielder for 13 seasons, has died. He was 69.
Burbank police Sgt. Robert Quesada says Davis was found dead Tuesday morning in his Burbank home. Davis appeared in three World Series, including 1966 when he committed a Fall Classic-record three errors in one inning.
