| Message | Thirty years have come and gone and still the memory of you as our Yankee Captain and leader carries on. We know you were the best and when it came to the postseason you blew away the rest. Your lifetime postseason batting average of .357 destroys the competition. Not one Hall of Fame catcher can even come close. Ray Schalk is next in line with a .286 lifetime postseason batting average with all the others below that! Your 22 runs batted in during the postseason is more than Carlton Fisk, Mickey Cochrane, Gabby Hartnett, Ernie Lombardi and Ray Schalk combined! Your 46 hits lifetime in postseason trails only Yogi Berra for all time as far as catchers in the Hall of Fame are concerned. You and Jim Rice are the ONLY PLAYERS for the decade of the 1970's to have 3 straight years with a .300+ batting average and at least 100 runs batted in. You were the best and the best are supposed to go to the Hall of Fame. THIRTY YEARS OF IGNORANCE IS ENOUGH ALREADY! PLEASE WAKE UP HALL OF FAME!!! |
