Felt the need to share this...
March 27, 1987
SP Tommy John Hurt
The Yankees will be minus Tommy John for about 12 months after the starting pitcher suffered a torn ulnar collateral ligament while throwing a pitch in a recent game against oakland. John and the New York skipper were hoping further examination might show there was less damage than originally thought and he would be absent a shorter duration.
That's right, folks.. at 43 years old, Tommy John is having Tommy John surgery.
