Harry Wendelstedt, a retired 33-year Major League Baseball umpire who also nurtured a new generation of the game's arbiters for more than 30 years, died Friday at a hospital in Daytona Beach, Fla. He was 73 and had brain cancer.

.

Wendelstedt, who officiated more than 4,500 games, worked five World Series two as crew chief as well as seven National League Championship Series and four All-Star Games.

.

Former Dodger Manager Tom Lasorda is among those leading the campaign for Wendelstedt's election into baseball's Hall of Fame.

.

Paul Runge, like Wendelstedt a former veteran umpire crew chief, said that in addition to being "one of the premier umpires in the game," Wendelstedt left a more powerful legacy by devoting his efforts to teaching the craft at his Ormond Beach, Fla.-based Wendelstedt Umpire School.

.

The school boasts 14 active major league umpires on its current list of advisors.

"Harry spent his whole life helping and creating umpires," the elder Runge said. "It's amazing when you think about the number of people Harry's school influenced guys working college, high school, Little League, sand lot games."

.

Wendelstedt was born July 27, 1938, in Baltimore, started umpiring minor league games in 1962 and reached the major league level in 1966.
