    5 days ago | nytimes.com | Rebecca Tauber |Mark Puleo

    3 weeks ago | nytimes.com | Rebecca Tauber

    Thanks to Bruce Springsteen, Joe DePugh's glory days never really passed him by. DePugh, who helped inspire "Glory Days" - Springsteen's rollicking, yet bittersweet ode to youthful memories on his mega-selling 1984 album "Born in the U.S.A." - died of cancer in Florida this week at 75. "Just a moment to mark the passing of Freehold native and ballplayer Joe DePugh," Springsteen wrote in a statement posted to Instagram on Sunday.
