In sad news, King 5 news is reporting that Dave Niehaus, aged 75, has passed away.
Known as The Voice of the Mariners, Niehaus was the Mariners radio announcer since 1977, and is best known for his trade marked 'Fly, Fly Away' and 'My, oh My.'
Here is Dave calling one of the best moments in Seattle Mariner history(not that the list is long):

Dave was inducted to the Broadcasters Wing of the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2008.
He made listening to many sad, sad Mariners games a much more interesting experience, and he will be missed.
