A resolution honoring the life and legacy of Carl Daniel Erskine.

This resolution (SRES 696) is a ceremonial Senate measure honoring the late Carl Daniel Erskine, a former Major League Baseball pitcher and community leader from Anderson, Indiana. It commemorates his MLB career with the Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers, his coaching at Anderson University, his extensive philanthropy (including work with the Special Olympics), and his recognition as Indiana's highest honor recipient (Sachem Award). The resolution expresses the Senate's appreciation for his lifelong contributions to baseball, Indiana, and charitable causes, and requests that a copy be sent to his family. As a symbolic gesture with no policy impact, it directly affects no individuals or entities beyond acknowledging his legacy.
