‘Pudge’ Rodriguez Inspired By Bench, Clemente Plaques
‘Pudge’ Rodriguez Inspired
By Bench, Clemente Plaques
Baseball Hall of Fame 2017 inductee Ivan “Pudge” Rodriguez, “widely regarded as the best defensive catcher of all time,” according to Wikipedia, responded to bilingual questioning from a phalanx of reporters in an “availability” now underway at 25 Main St., Cooperstown. Rodriguez said he was particularly inspired by the plaques of fellow catcher Johnny Bench, as well as Roberto Clemente and Nolan Ryan. “The whole museum is great,” he said. All inductees undergo a similar orientation prior to the big day, Sunday, July 30. Inset at right his his wife, Patricia Gomez, who was being interviewed separately in the Hall of Plaques.

Atlanta Braves President Gets Orientation At Hall
Schuerholz In ’17 Induction Class
Atlanta Braves President
Gets Orientation At Hall
2017 Inductee John Schuerholz, left, chats with Erik Strohl, vice president/exhibitions & collections, during the former Atlanta Braves president’s orientation visit this morning at the Baseball Hall of Fame. Behind him are plaques of “buddies” he worked with during his MLB career. The inductee worked for the Baltimore Orioles in 1966-69 before becoming the GM for the Kansas City Royals in 1981-90, then GM with the Braves in 1990-07, when he was promoted to president. “The epitome of my career was when Jane (Clark) called me at 5:13 p.m. when I was in my hotel room in Maryland and told me, ‘John, you’ve been elected into the Hall of Fame’.” During his visit, Schuerholz signed his name on a marker showing where his plaque will be, an innovation this year. Induction is July 30. (Emily Murphy/AllOTSEGO.com)
