As much as I like Boudreau's lifetime Major League Baseball pass, I think this one, issued to him by the American Basketball League for the 1961-62 season, is even cooler.
Boudreau was a standout basketball player at Illinois and even played a little professionally, so it made sense that he'd have this pass. Plus, this was the short-lived ABL's inaugural season, with the Cleveland entry -- the Pipers -- being owned by George Steinbrenner.

These are very cool. I wonder how one uses the pass?

Does MLB or the teams issue lifetime passes anymore?

Lifetime passes
Yes, MLB still issues them. It's now given to players after they complete their 8th year. It used to be more difficult. Lifetime passes were the brainchild of Ford Frick. Here are a couple more that look different than the others.
The first is for the Federal League's all-time home run champ. The next one is what is more common. This style was around for a long time and can be dated by the names of the league presidents. Then there's Early Wynn's lifetime pass to the Hall and finally Joe Cronin's lifetime pass -- with his own facsimilie signature as league president. Kind of fun.
