Jim Palmer won a World Series ring in the sixties. Jim Palmer won a World Series ring in the seventies. Jim Palmer won a World Series ring in the eighties… and Jim Palmer is the only pitcher win rings in three different decades. It's also worth flagging up his six All-Star appearances, three Cy Young awards, a no-hitter in 1969, his career ERA of 2.856, plus the simple to say but hard to comprehend fact that nobody ever hit a Grand Slam from a Palmer pitch in the  majors. And all that while being loyal and sticking with the Baltimore Orioles for nineteen years. Palmer is rightly seen as one of the best pitchers in the history of baseball and his ERA - fifth overall in the live-ball rankings - stands as testament to that. Just ahead of him on that list with a career ERA of 2.76 is Sandy Koufax. So how could we not head to Game 2 of the 1966 World Series. Sandy Koufax is taking his last start for the LA Dodgers, while Jim Palmer is in his second year with the Baltimore Orioles and his first World Series start. Bob Prince and Chuck Thompson are behind the mics for what we now know is a historic game of career bookmarks.
