There are several players in the HOF who one can question whether they are indeed hall worthy. Tom Seaver was a no doubter. By anyone standards, Tom Teriffic deserves to be mentioned with the greatest who ever played the game.

He was a great player and was able to at least see him play in the early 1980s

Baseball History!!! Thanks Mr. Seaver

Sad news indeed.

Here is the scorecard to go with your signed no hitter ticket...

I posted scans of the scorecard (and accompanying items) from his "Imperfect Game" on the main page Seaver thread.

Back in July of '85 I took in a Saturday afternoon White Sox/Orioles game at Memorial Stadium with Seaver pitching for the Sox.

I took some pre-game photos of him warming up in the Bullpen and then one of him pitching to Cal Ripken Jr. Looking at that picture now, I can see that it now has four Hall of Famers in it...

RIP Tom

Man, we are getting old.

I remember like yesterday, seeing pictures of Tom and Nancy Seaver. A great looking couple of kids, dubbed “the face of youth” by the media at the time. Where does the time go?

One of the true greats. RIP Mr. Seaver
