My son and I were there for that celebration last night.
If ever a baseball player deserved such an honor, Jim Palmer was at the top of the list.
Congratulations Jim, and thank you!
I arrive from cuba on oct 5 1970,the first game i saw was the world series jim palmer was pitching and instantly he became my favorite player of all time i was lucky to see him until he retired he gave me many autograph every time i asked he always when out of his way to signed
He is a class act. Respectfully speaking
So sweet. This has really been a week for connecting to our history. #OriolesFamily
The days of him and Weaver going at it brings a grin to my face
I’m 32. Born and raised an orioles fan. Live right here on the pa Maryland line.
Played ball up through south penn league. (26 years old when I stopped)
I wore number 22 every year but 1. I got beat to it.
I have pitched 2 no hitters.
1 in little league (7 innings.)
And 1 freshman year.
Both donning the number 22.
My dad said you wanna pitch, you watch Jim Palmer.
Thank you for everything. I don’t know if I’d have the drive to be a successful as I am now in life, marriage, friendship, etc if I didn’t try to be Jim Palmer.
Had the pleasure to see him pitch many times. What a pitcher. Absolutely loved his back and forth with Earl. Thanks for the memories Mr Palmer
Legend
Thanks for the memories, Jim. Nice to see Al Bumbry having a good time.🎉
Being an O’s fan since the early 90’s I’ve been extremely privileged to listen to Jim Palmer talk baseball basically my entire life.
Good for Jim!
Jim Palmer, I saw you pitch one time in person in my entire life and you gifted all of us that day, September 4, 1982 with a one-hitter against the Twins. It was one of your best six games in your career as you threw one no-hitter and five one-hitters in your career. Cal hit one his 44 career triples that night and Eddie hit a two-run homer, his 26th that season. If memory serves me correct, Gary Gaetti's hit skipped off the mound and into center field. I remember your high leg kick as early as 1970, the first time I saw you on TV. The one thing Kevin missed in talking about your eight 20-game seasons was they came over 9 seasons. Remarkable. I was at the HOF when you were inducted and you signed a HOF induction placard for my mother who is one of your biggest fans. I sent baseball cards to you to sign when I was 12 in the early 1970s in care of the organization and you returned them autographed in an Orioles envelope with my address in your handwriting. I still have the cards and the envelope. You are a class act and have given us many memories to cherish. Your work for autism is just icing on the Cakes as I have a close relative with autism. Thank you for being an Oriole and always remaining an Oriole. You are truly a Hall of Fame human being.
I was 13 when Jim came up to pitch for the Orioles.
I never missed any of his home starts.
He was an incredible pitcher.
Tippy Martinez, Ken Singleton, now you’re talking! ❤
Thanks for everything Jim!!
Beautiful. A 1st-class tribute, and a classic record of the Oriole Way. Thank you and congratulations!
He has done great work for his autisitc stepson
What a great man!
Thank you for sharing this and thank you Jim Palmer.
Cakes!
As an old Oriole fan when i try to make sense of the game today and starting Pitchers that go 6 or 7 innings I always think back to when Jim Palmer would close out a full 9 innings over and over again and still be confounding batters with ground outs to the infield. I was in New York at the time Jim got inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown NY. A buddy of mine drove up with me. Bit of a rainy day I recall. Jim came out and said hello to us. Emotions running high right now. My favorite Oriole is Boog Powell and it has been great to see him.
Not bad for an underwear model....! Seriously, congrats Jim on your milestone.
That's true about never giving up a GS. I asked him "How'd you do it?" He smiled and said "I walked him'.
I've been a fan since 1968! 1968-1970 Orioles were the best and my favorite!
I have too - although I admit the Angelos family have made it difficult at times to keep loving them. It's too bad we can't go back to the days of Jerold Hoffburger and Williams.
66 for me….
I have run into Jim Palmer at the paint store a couple of times. The guys in their 20s didn't even know who he was!
Impressive. When baseball was baseball....that starting 4 each won 20
How is Jim Palmer 77 years old? I swear the guy must be part vampire - he ages very very slowly.
If you ever listened to Jim, who talks a ot about Jim, you then realize then is an "I" and a "me" in Jim Palmer. Little known fact though, K.C. Royals could have taken him in 1969 in the expansion draft, the O's left him unprotected since he was having arm issues.

Did anyone else besides Jim attempt a MLB comeback AFTER being inducted into the HOF?
Cal
Amazing that he still looks so vitile and with brown hair
