He had a high 1974 season having a 13-3 record. Add to that, the Dodgers were on their way to their first National League title. A pennant they've been waiting for eight years. However, following that fruitful season was a permanent damage in John's ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching arm. This led to a breakthrough surgical operation named after him, the Tommy John surgery. Here, the ligament in the elbow of his pitching arm was supplanted with a tendon taken from his right forearm. It was considered a miraculous event as he was able pitch again after the surgery. Grab a Tommy John autographed baseball as well as photographs at SignedAutographed.com.
