Trump Organization Deal Toy from 2005!

Enos Slaughter and Arky Vaughan are elected to the Hall of Fame by the Veterans Committee. Slaughter, known for his hustling style of play, gained fame for his celebrated “Mad Dash” home during the 1946 World Series. Vaughan batted .318 over a 14-year career with the Pittsburgh Pirates and Brooklyn Dodgers.

The Veterans Committee elects four new members for the Hall of Fame, and just misses naming a fifth. The group elected includes fiery manager Earl Weaver, who had a .583 winning percentage in 17 seasons managing the Baltimore Orioles; pitcher Jim Bunning, who won 100 games in both leagues, including no-hitters in each circuit, one of them a perfect game; 19th-century manager Ned Hanlon, who won five National League pennants with the Baltimore Orioles (3) and Brooklyn (2); and Bill Foster, the top left-handed pitcher in the Negro Leagues. Nellie Fox receives the necessary 75% of the Committee’s votes, but the rules allow just one modern player elected, and Bunning has more votes.

From the SABR Baseball Biography Project:
“I have never seen a pitcher like him, and I have caught some of the best in the business.”
– Frank Duncan
“That Rogan can beat you, even when you pitch around him.”
– Candy Jim Taylor
How good was Bullet Rogan, also known as Bullet Joe Rogan? If the baseball gods were kind, the names Babe Ruth, Shohei Ohtani, Martín Dihigo, and Bullet Rogan would be inextricably bound as the best two-way players ever. According to Neil Paine, MLB writer, “[there was] another player that essentially did what Ohtani is doing right now—Bullet Joe Rogan of the Kansas City Monarchs in the 1920s and ’30s.” In fact, wrote Paine, “Ohtani is joining a club that Bullet Rogan founded.”
