EARL WEAVER
Official National League baseball, signed with his Hall of Fame year
Baseball signed: "Earl Weaver/H.O.F. 96". Rawlings Official National
League baseball, Leonard S. Coleman, Jr., President, signed in the
sweet-spot. Weaver managed the Baltimore Orioles for 17 years, including 15
in a row, taking them to the World Series four times. His winning percentage
as a manager is the eighth highest of all time. Weaver liked to bait umpires,
and was thrown out of almost 100 games (including a rare World Series
ejection in Game Four of the 1969 Series) and suspended at least four times.
In 1985, he was ejected from both ends of a doubleheader. Not a big advocate of
base stealing or sacrifice bunts, Weaver expressed his winning formula this way:
W = GP + 3RH (Win = good pitching + 3-run homer). Weaver was highly
superstitious, even for a baseball guy, but was also one of the first to rely
heavily on computer-generated statistics. As he notes on this baseball, Weaver
entered the Hall of Fame in 1996. Fine condition.
