Moyer Monday: January 10

Once again, in conjunction with the great Moyer Foundation…The Hall is pleased to present this month’s “Moyer Monday”.

Question:  What player(s) do you recall as being a challenge to retire? Are there hitters you are most proud of having gotten out?

Moyer:  The players that have good comprehension of the strike zone are always the toughest hitters to get out. Any Major League hitter I am proud to have gotten out!

Question:  I’ve heard that one of your hobbies is collecting wine. What is your favorite kind of wine and/or winery?

Moyer:  My favorite type of wines are bordeaux, super tuscans, piedmonts, barolos, cabernet and merlot.

Question:  When you were younger, did you ever consider playing a different position in baseball? If so, what position other than pitcher do you think would best suit you?

Moyer:  Being left-handed limits the positions you can play so pitcher has become my favorite.

Question:  Do you have any New Year’s Resolutions? What are you most looking forward to in 2011?

Moyer:  Getting through another rehab while enjoying my family. Also becoming more involved with The Moyer Foundation.

Question:  What do you think of the most recent Baseball Hall of Fame inductees?

Moyer:  I think all of this year’s inductees are worthy of the honor including Pat Gillick. They have all greatly contributed to the game of baseball.
