George Thomas Seaver was a franchise power pitcher who helped change the New York Mets from lovable losers into formidable foes. The quintessential professional, Tom Terrific won 311 games with a 2.86 ERA over 20 seasons and his 3,272 strikeouts set a National League record. Seaver fanned 3,640 batters in his career, including 200 or more 10 times and 19 in a single game once. No. 41 was the National League Rookie of the Year in 1967, a three-time Cy Young Award winner and made more Opening Day starts (16) than any pitcher in history.

Tom may have been matched in class by one or two butr never outmatched. Too say every player strives for that is incorrect though. Check out what one of his former battery mates, Carlton Fisk, who in my opinion is in the same category of class, thought of " Neon Deion". By the way Bo Jackson was the real deal.

Many do not know but for many years, Mr. Seaver worked tirelessly trying to get his old Mets coach, Gil Hodges, elected to Baseball’s Hall of Fame; he almost accomplished this but fell short 1 vote in the old timers ballot (71%). It’s sad that Tom died before Gil finally got his due more than 50 years after he passed away from a heart attack while playing golf.

I will never forget it!! I told tom I saw his NoNo and I also witnessed his 3,000 strike out was Keith Hernandez. a great man and the best pitcher of my lifetime!!! Nolan Ryan is nothing compared to num 41 he got his 300 and 3,000 a decade before Ryan!! they started more less at at the same time!!

Seaver looks like he could get out there and still pitch. The 1960's Mets were a joke. An absolute joke up until the last few months of the decade. In 1968 the Mets were 24 games out and 16 games under .500. On May 27, 1969 the Mets were 18-23. Seaver was one of the few who thought the Mets could win. He said it at the time. You can hear his leadership in this speech.
