EARL WEAVER
Famed MLB manager signs trading card in blue ink
Trading card signed: "Earl Weaver" in blue felt tip. Color,
2½x3½. 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. Weaver entered the Hall of Fame in 1996.
Corners rounded. Slightly toned. Ink slightly smeared. Otherwise, fine
condition.
