Tom Gorman (umpire) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tom Gorman (umpire)
Thomas David Gorman (March 16, 1919 – August 11, 1986) was an American pitcher and umpire in Major League Baseball who pitched five innings in four games for the New York Giants in 1939, and went on to serve as a National League umpire from 1951 to 1976 and then as a league supervisor. His son Brian has been a major league umpire since 1991 and wears the same uniform number 9 the elder Gorman wore after the NL began adding numbers to umpire uniforms in 1970. ==Early life== Gorman was born in New York City and grew up in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood. He attended high school at the now-defunct Power Memorial Academy. After pitching in the minor leagues for three years, he served in the Army in Europe as a member of the 16th Infantry during World War II. An injury in 1946 ended his playing career; faced with the choice of returning to New York City and becoming a plumber, he became aware of an umpiring position in the New England League, and although he felt he was not cut out to be an umpire, his wife persuaded him to take the position for the 1947 season for $180 per month.〔 He later moved up to the International League in 1949. He also coached baseball at Rice High School in Manhattan, a Christian Brothers school.
