Gaylord Perry (1938-2022) Physique: Average Build Height: 6′ 3″ (1.93 m)

Gaylord Jackson Perry was an American professional baseball player. He played in Major League Baseball as a right-handed pitcher for eight different teams from 1962 to 1983. During a 22-year baseball career, Perry compiled 314 wins, 3,534 strikeouts, and a 3.11 earned run average. Perry died of natural causes at the age of 84.

Perry first caught my attention during an "Old-Timer's Game" in the 1980s wearing a jersey featuring the eight MLB teams he played for. He was a Baseball Hall of Famer and two-time Cy Young award winner known for his spitball. I would have love for him to give me his spitball and I'm not talking about his pitch.

GAYLORD PERRY (1935-Died December 1st 2022,at 84).American professional baseball player. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a right-handed pitcher for eight different teams from 1962 to 1983. During a 22-year baseball career, Perry compiled 314 wins, 3,534 strikeouts, and a 3.11 earned run average. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1991.Perry, a five-time All-Star, was the first pitcher to win the Cy Young Award in both leagues: the American League (AL) in 1972 with the Cleveland Indians, and the National League (NL) in 1978 with the San Diego Padres; his Cy Young Award announcement just as he turned the age of 40 made him the oldest to win the award, which stood as a record for 26 years.He registered his 3,000th strikeout with the San Diego Padres in 1978. While pitching for the Seattle Mariners in 1982, Perry joined the 300 win club.Despite Perry's notoriety for doctoring baseballs (e.g. throwing spitballs), and perhaps even more so for making batters think he was throwing them on a regular basis—he went so far as to title his 1974 autobiography Me and the Spitter—he was not ejected for the illegal practice until his 21st season in the majors in 1982.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaylord_Perry

Post-AGT Appearance 1231: Merloni, Fauria and Mego December 5

The songs would have continued to sink over the weekend.

Christine McVie would never have been on the list of suspects individually but Fleetwood Mac as a team would have always been on the list, presently 64th.  Gaylord Perry would have started in 91st place, peaked at 90th, dropped out of the top 100 in 2019, returned briefly twice in 2021 before dropping out again.  No one would ask but I would authorized the listed comment Friday.  The first to mention it would be my friend Lou Merloni.  His show is now called Merloni, Fauria and Mego.  The new person is Boston Herald columnist Meghan Ottolini.  The show is on 2 to 6 pm on WEEI in Boston.  They would start a segment late in the first hour by playing my little ditty about Lou Merloni as posted 7 years ago and written when he played for the Red Sox.

Fauria: well that little introduction means Lou has an update about our friend Phil Cole.  What is it, Lou?

Merloni: Well, Chris and Meg, the baseball world is mourning the death of Hall of Fame spitballer Gaylord Perry.

Fauria: Did you ever face him?

Merloni: I’m not that old!  Anyway the gambling world is wondering if he might be the last name on that list of celebrities that make Phillip sick.

Ottolini: What’s that all about?

Fauria: His performance is called Phillip and Cole’s Variety Team, but really he’s a one man team.  He does these characters and one of them is called Phillip the Boston intellectual.

Merloni: And tell her: what’s the difference between Phil and Phillip?

Fauria: Phil’s just a regular guy who grew up in Boston and uh, Phillip is a Boston intellectual who gets sick when he hears the names of famous and annoying celebrities.

Ottolini: Such as?

Merloni: Well, Donald Trump for one.

Fauria: So he’s always sick.

Merloni: Howard Stern, Alan Dershowitz.

Fauria: O. J. Simpson...Dennis Rodman...disgusting people.

Ottolini: So...

Fauria: One name is secret and everyone wants to know who it is.

Ottolini: Is he telling us now?

Merloni: No, but it wasn’t Gaylord Perry.  He released a statement.  It says:

PBC: Phillip and Cole’s Variety Team objects to all cheaters and those who profit by cheating, but Gaylord Perry was not the last name on Phillip’s list.

Fauria: What a surprise.

Ottolini: So, when will he tell us?

Fauria: If the right one dies I guess.

Ottolini: That might take...years.

Merloni: It has!  How long ago did we meet him, Chris?

Fauria: It must be...my God, 2015.

Merloni: Time flies.

Ottolini: So people are betting on this?

Merloni: All over the world.  I’ve got a list of the top 100 bets right here.  It’s not the newest list but...

Fauria: Are there any sports people on it?

Merloni: Yes, let’s see...Oh. no...Ted Turner is 16th place.

Ottolini: That covers sports, business, politics and celebrity.

Merloni: And Jane Fonda is in the top 10.

Ottolini: Somehow when I think of Jane Fonda the first thing I think of is not the Atlanta Braves.

Merloni, You’re not a Boston intellectual, Mego.

Ottolini: Thanks, ha ha.

Fauria: What about Belichick?

Merloni: Uhhhh

Fauria: Or Brady.

Merloni: Yes, here he is.  Belichick is 45th on the list and Brady...I just saw it, 57th.

Ottolini: So, do you think it might be one of them?

Merloni : I heard...he told a Brady joke long ago.

Ottolini: Inflated balls?

Merloni: That’s it.  He found a deflated ball behind the dresser so maybe his wife is having an affair with Tom Brady.

Ottolini: Ha ha ha.

Fauria: He he.

Ottolini: So I guess it’s not Tom Brady.

Merloni: Not necessarily.  He can’t talk about the people on his list too much because it makes Phillip sick.  So if he makes a lot of jokes about someone it’s usually evidence it’s not him.

Ottolini: So who do you guys think it is?

Fauria: Well if it’s sports it might go back to the 70s, maybe Keith Magnuson or one of the Philadelphia Flyers.

Ottolini: Bobby Clarke.

Merloni: Someone like that.

Fauria: Maybe Laimbeer and Mahorn.

Merloni: It could be Boston politics, someone like John Kerry.

Ottolini: And we won’t find out until the person dies?

Merloni: We can have fun with these updates forever.  You’re next on WEEI the sports hub.
