    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Kim Beales May 18, 2018 [email protected] 619.990.1335 Jane Mitchell Counts Down to Trevor Hoffman, Alan Trammell Cooperstown Hall of Fame Inductions One on One host invites viewers to follow her on this once-in-a-lifetime journey. SAN DIEGO, May 18, 2018 –One on One host Jane Mitchell is on her way to Cooperstown this summer to follow the historic journeys of baseball legends Trevor Hoffman and Alan Trammell to the National Baseball Hall of Fame, and she is getting fans ready now with countdown stories and videos through a special edition website www.countdowntocooperstown.com. The Countdown to Cooperstown website gives viewers a special look at inductees Trevor and Alan, popular athletes in the cities where they played, and known throughout the game for their stellar performances and work on and off the field. A unique experience for visitors, the site features an up-close and personal look at the two players’ careers and life stories, and shares how they are known around the game from fans and other Hall of Famers. It features regular posts, archived video clips, new stories and interviews. It will also include Jane’s coverage of the Cooperstown Hall of Fame weekend July 27-30, which marks her fourth trip to Cooperstown; she previously covered the inductions of Dave Winfield in 2001, Jerry Coleman in 2005 and Tony Gwynn in 2007. Jane has been fortunate to combine her childhood passion for storytelling with a career in television. Although not a sports fan growing up, she helped launch the San Diego Padres TV station in 1997, which led to her role as the anchor of the successful One on One with Jane Mitchell series for more than 15 years, during which she interviewed icons, including Tony Gwynn, Ted Williams and the newest inductees, Trevor and Alan, whose conversations are archived on www.countdowntocooperstown.com.

  • Justin Verlander Named Tiger of the Year by the Detroit Chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: MEDIA RELATIONS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2011 313-471-2000 / tigers.com @Official_Tigers / @TigresdeDetroit facebook.com/tigers JUSTIN VERLANDER NAMED TIGER OF THE YEAR BY THE DETROIT CHAPTER OF THE BASEBALL WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA DETROIT – Justin Verlander has been selected as the Tiger of the Year for 2011 in voting by the Detroit Chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America. The righthander received 25 of the 26 first place votes, with the other vote going to first baseman Miguel Cabrera. Verlander led the American League with 24 wins, a 2.40 ERA and 250 strikeouts in 2011 to become just the second pitcher in franchise history to lead all three categories in a single season, joining Hal Newhouser, who accomplished the feat in 1945. He became the first American League pitcher to win the triple crown since Minnesota’s Johan Santana did so in 2006. In addition to leading the league in wins, ERA and strikeouts, Verlander also topped all league pitchers with an .828 winning percentage, 251.0 innings pitched, a .192 batting average against, 6.24 hits per nine innings and 8.39 baserunners per nine innings. Additional season superlatives included a 16-3 record following a Tigers loss. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, it marked the most wins by a pitcher following a team loss since Steve Carlton posted 19 such wins for the Philadelphia Phillies during the 1972 season. With 250 strikeouts, Verlander has now recorded 200-or-more strikeouts in three straight seasons, marking the longest streak by a Tigers pitcher since Mickey Lolich did so in six straight seasons from 1969-74.

In his 15th year of consideration from the Baseball Writers Association of America, the longtime Tiger legend once again fell short of the 75% needed for induction to Cooperstown, earning 40.9% of the vote. “It’s flattering and honoring just to be talked about it,” Trammell said recently. “And I know that as a player, I could hold my own.” Two players were inducted by the writers this evening: Centerfielder Ken Griffey, Jr., with 99.3% of the vote and catcher Mike Piazza, with 83%. Tigers manager Brad Ausmus did not receive a vote. Trammell, 57, was a career .285 hitter in 20 major league seasons – all in Detroit. Voting results for the Baseball Hall of Fame He hit 185 home runs, stole 236 bases, was a six-time All-Star with four Gold Glove Awards, three Silver Slugger Awards and a World Series Most Valuable Player in 1984 to his name. By the numbers, he stacks up favorably with the best shortstops in baseball history.
