The Baltimore Orioles pitcher from Colorado made a very cool move changing his jersey to #34 to keep the memory of his idol alive on the mound.
In a Tweet, Gausman shared how he and his father watched Halladay pitch when Gausman was a child. Gausman called Halladay his hero and credits Halladay with inspiring him to pursue his dreams of being a pitcher.
An inspirational player
In the history of the MLB, a small percentage ballplayers have come from Colorado. Halladay proved that players from the Centennial State could play ball and this helped Gausman realize he could do the same.
