A Statement Regarding Darren Daulton 97.5 the Phantic
Darren Daulton has not been feeling well over the past two weeks. He went to the doctor who discovered two brain tumors and is scheduled for surgery early next week. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family at this difficult time. Of course we want to respect his privacy at a time like this, but if you would like to send him get well wishes you may do so at dutch@975thefanatic.com
I am currently in shock, disbelief. I was listening the Phanic on the way home But tonight there was no.97.5 FM called “Talking Baseball with Dutch,” which airs weeknights during the season. I heard the on air personality talk about a person in grave ill. Dear Lord. I knew Darren from 1990-1992, when he caught for my two friends, Jason Grimsley and Terry Mulholland.
Darren, I just went to my local Mall to find a shirt of yours. I will find one tomorrow. All of Philadelphia is praying for your recovery.
You know the rest. Best hardworking catcher in MLB. Knew Daulton knew how to control his pitchers heads on the mound, keep them focused.

Tug McGraw, 1993 MLB All-Star Game interview for Channel 6, Actions News. I was in research of past MLB All Star Games and came across our beloved Tugger. My heart broke, tears dwelled in my eyes. Tug McGraw was taken from us too early in 2004 and died of brain cancer. I remember he was down in spring training camp with the team and he started to have headaches, discovered was brain tumors in Clearwater, FL.
Tug McGraw was part of the World Series team for the Philadelphia Phillies in 1980. Pitched the last ball as a closing pitcher against the KC Royals. The Phils were up 3-2 in the series. Tug pitched from the 7th to the 9th inning, unheard of in today’s specialized pitching rotation.
He is also was father of Country singer, Emmy award winner Tim McGraw.
