The Arizona Diamondbacks say Garagiola died Wednesday. He had been in ill health in recent years.
Garagiola thrived in his post-retirement career as a glib baseball broadcaster and fixture on the "Today" show. He played eight seasons in the majors, but generations of fans knew him for his 57-year career in broadcasting, including a 30-year association with NBC.
