Detroit Tigers fans will finally have a reason to vacation to Cooperstown this summer. For the first time since Hal Newhouser was elected in 1992 a player will enter the Hall of Fame wearing the Old English D.
Alan Trammell and Jack Morris were both inducted into the Hall of Fame on Sunday, December 10th at the Winter Meetings in Orlando, Florida.
The doors to Cooperstown have finally opened for Jack Morris and Alan Trammell, courtesy of the Hall of Fame Modern Era Baseball committee. 1984 Tigers finally get some recognition.
