One of my favorites. In the 8th grade I did one of my first ever book reports on "The Tommy John Story". Great book

More than a famous surgery.
Won 288 games but not in the HOF because he was deemed a compiler. Played 14 years after the surgery.
Was on 3 World Series teams 2 with Dodgers who lost to NYY and one with NYY and lost to the Dodgers.
I remember when his son fell out of a window in a neighboring town and was in serious condition but ended up doing very well.
RIP Tommy....you were great.

It’s one of the first ones that I remember as I was fairly proud of the work I put in. Was it my first ever? I wouldn’t have a clue. That was over 40 years ago lolCruisin with Tooz wrote: Tue Aug 18, 2026 10:21 am You didnt have to do book reports until the 8th grade?
