Bob Skinner, a World Series-winning player and coach, died on Monday in San Diego. He was 94. Skinner played 12 seasons in Major League Baseball before moving into a coaching role. He won two World Series titles with the Pirates — one as a player in 1960 and another as a coach in 1979 — and one while playing with the Cardinals in 1964.

The 6ft 4ins outfielder, who was known as 'Sleepy' for his laid-back demeanor, spent 12 seasons in the major leagues with Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and St. Louis. He was a three-time All-Star.
