As part of the Induction Weekend ceremony Sunday, July 28, at the Clark Sports Center in Cooperstown, N.Y., in which three Pre-Integration Committee electees – umpire Hank O’Day, New York Yankees owner Jacob Ruppert and 19th-century player Deacon White – will be inducted, the Hall of Fame will recognize 12 individuals previously counted among its roster of members who never had a formal induction due to wartime restrictions.
If any of your non-baseball fan friends ask you who Hank O'Day was, just explain to them that he was the Nestor Chylak of the 'aughts.
"My name's O'Day. That's Pig Latin for money, honey, and plenty of it."
