The only MLB pitcher to record 100 saves and 100 complete games

3. Joe Tait on 3WE

When I was a kid I would listen to Tribe games on the radio with my dad out on the back porch on many a summer evening. Once I drew a picture of the two announcers as what I thought they looked like broadcasting a game. (Tait and Herb Score). I was probably around 7 or 8 Well my dad sent the drawing to Joe Tait without me knowing and he wrote me a very nice letter thanking me for the drawing. I wonder whatever happened to it, my mother probably threw it away!

Anyway … this brought a chuckle:

Fellow Hall of Fame pitcher Goose Gossage once said Eckersley “could hit a gnat in the butt with a pitch if he wanted to.”

Thank you for the box scores, Auggie. Exciting times.
