The following personnel have been selected by a committee for their participation in the Florida State League at the beginning of their illustrious careers in baseball:

• Johnny Bench, 1965 Tampa Tarpons
• Rod Carew, 1965 Orlando Twins

Two Field Managers, Stan Wasiak, 1983-86, Vero Beach, and John Lipon, 1988-92, Lakeland, distinguished themselves as the winningest managers in Minor League baseball and are also being honored.

One Chief Executive who was General Manager of the Tampa Tarpons, and later became the President of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues is also being inducted. Mike Moore, recently retired, gave baseball a new insight on promoting and revising its program to benefit clubs, players, communities, and most of all, the fans.

Umpires play a great part in this game of baseball, and the name Harry Wendelstedt, Jr. is well known not only as an umpire in the Major Leagues, but also for his umpire school in Ormond Beach, Florida. He, along with Phil Cuzzi, whose stint in the Florida State League led to his comeback in Major League Umpiring are being inducted.

The Florida State League also voted to include one of the most outstanding owners who has been instrumental in keeping baseball in Florida. That man is George Steinbrenner of the New York Yankees and the Tampa Yankees Baseball Clubs.
