Baseball Historian Biography

With 'Whitey' Ford in the U.S. Military, Tom Gorman made his major league debut in 1952 as part of manager Casey Stengel's 'new-look pitching staff'. Gorman went 6-2, .750 pct., appeared in 12 games, stated 6, and hurled a complete game shutout. With the return of 'Whitey' Ford in 1953, Tom Gorman joined the Yankees' bullpen and was one of the AL's leading relievers. Gorman's intimating mannerisms on the mound to go with a rapid fastball enabled him to collect 6 saves in 40 appearances and post a fine 3.39 ERA. He seemed to hold the team's bullpen together and was a big force in the Yankees winning the pennants in '52 and '53. In 1954 he relieved in 23 games, 36 2/3 innings with a 2.21 ERA. None-the-less, he was traded away after the 1954 season. baseballhistorian.com - All Rights Reserved - Tom Gorman NY Debut
