Hall of Famer and Reds legend Joe Morgan has died at the age of 77, the Associated Press confirmed on Monday.
A family spokesperson told the AP that Morgan died at his home in Danville, Calif., on Sunday. He suffered from a nerve condition, a form of polyneuropathy.
During his 22-year career, Morgan spent his first 10 seasons in Houston before heading to Cincinnati in 1972. He became a member of the "Big Red Machine," which is widely recognized as one of the best teams in baseball history. The squad, which also featured Pete Rose, Johnny Bench and Tony Perez, dominated in the '70s.
