It has been a year since Trevor Hoffman and Alan Trammell were inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. To celebrate that in 2018, I opened the One on One archives to share their journeys and invited you to follow me to Cooperstown for that once in a lifetime celebration. This site is a unique and personal Countdown to Cooperstown... including interviews with them, behind the scenes, reflections, and fan stories.

NOW... watch the Special Encore shows (1998, 2007, 2015) and

the 2018 Emmy Award Winning Pre-Induction show ON LINE!
