The University of Michigan recently retired the jersey number of one of it's greatest baseball players in a ceremony at Alumni Stadium. Can you name him and the other five (without looking it up on line)who have had such an honor bestowed on them?

Rick Leach? Although I think it is an oxymoron to have "great" and UofM in the same sentence (except for gymnastics, that is.)
ReplyDeleteSorry, Kooch:(
ReplyDeleteI think Leach played football.
I thought you guys would have at least gotten one or two here! I'll give you another day, and then tell you that I guessed one right away.
Bill Freehan?
ReplyDeleteLeach got more press playing football, but he was a two sport person. He was drafted by the Tigers, broke into the Bigs in 1981 and played his last game in 1990.
ReplyDeleteChuck, YOU ARE RIGHT! That's the only one I got. The others are Barry Larkin, (most recently inducted) who played there from 1983-1985, Don Lund (1943-45), Moby Benedict (1954-56), Ray Fisher (head coach, 1921-58) and Jim Abbott (1986-88).
