Former high school baseball star Joe DePugh - who inspired Bruce Springsteen's song 'Glory Days' - has died at the age of 75. DePugh passed away at a hospice facility in West Palm Beach, Florida due to metastatic prostate cancer, his brother Paul told the New York Times. Springsteen and DePugh grew up together in Freehold, New Jersey, and played little league baseball together. While Joe was known as the team's star pitcher, Springsteen was actually nicknamed 'Saddie' by his friend due to his unfortunate lack of ability on the diamond.
