Hall of Fame pitcher Gaylord Perry passes away at 84
https://www.mlb.com/news/gaylord-perry-passes-away
Gaylord Perry, whose Hall of Fame pitching career will be forever linked with the spitball, died at his home in Gaffney, S.C., of natural causes on Thursday morning. He was 84.
Perry remained vigorous during most of his retirement, as he worked on his farm in Spruce Pine, N.C. He also religiously attended events, such as statue dedications and World Series ring ceremonies, with fellow Giants Hall of Famers. But his presence at such gatherings became sporadic in recent years.
Perry became the first pitcher to win a Cy Young Award in each league, capturing the honor in 1972 with Cleveland and in '78 with San Diego. In 22 Major League seasons, he compiled a 314-265 record with a 3.11 ERA and 3,534 strikeouts. He was a big league vagabond late in his career, eventually playing for eight teams: Giants, Indians, Rangers, Padres, Yankees, Braves, Mariners and Royals.
