SubscribeBecause us Jews gotta stick together
Veteran sportswriter Maury Allen wrote this column about the shande of Marvin Miller being kept out of the Hall of Fame, calling it “the crime of the century.”
Miller was honored recently as his 93rd birthday approached with formal induction into the International Jewish Sports Hall of Fame located in Tel Aviv, Israel. Three members of that distinguished honored group, former Olympic sculler Don Spero, former New York Times Pulitzer Prize winner Ira Berkow, and this writer celebrated with him at a Manhattan restaurant.
The absence of the baseball Hall of Fame honor clearly stings at this late stage of his life but other honors, his own writings, his frequent interviews and his occasional advice to his former Players Association colleagues fill his active schedule.
