Robert Granville Lemon
Inducted to the Hall of Fame in: 1976
Primary team: Cleveland Indians
Primary position: Pitcher

Bob Lemon didn’t want to be a pitcher, but thanks to the testimonials of those who faced him early on, he grudgingly became one of the game’s best.

“I’ve seen the elephant, heard the owl and flown with the screeching eagle,” Lemon once said. “I’ve never looked back and regretting anything. I’ve had everything in baseball a man could ask for. I’ve been so fortunate.

“You do the best you can. That’s it.”
