Eddie Murray & His Hall Of Fame Plaque

Inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2003, Eddie Murray gained entry into Cooperstown the first time that his name appeared on the ballot.

The plaque reads – “A powerful and productive switch-hitter whose consistency over 21 seasons led to 3,255 hits 560 doubles, 504 home runs, 5,397 total bases, and 1,917 RBI.  Third player ever to connect for more than 500 home runs and 3,000 hits.  Played in three World Series, winning with the Orioles in 1983.  An eight-time All-Star and 1977 AL Rookie Of The Year.  A skilled fielder, he earned three Gold Glove awards, setting major league records for games played and assists by a first baseman.”
