Ralph Terry

Ralph Willard Terry (January 9, 1936 – March 16, 2022) was a right-handed starting pitcher who spent twelve seasons in Major League Baseball with the New York Yankees, Kansas City Athletics, Cleveland Indians, and New York Mets from 1956 to 1967. A fixture in the Yankees rotation across five consecutive American League pennants from 1960 to 1964, his best season came in 1962 when he led the AL with 23 wins and earned his only All-Star selection. He was named World Series MVP that October after throwing a complete-game 1–0 shutout in Game 7. He is also remembered for surrendering Bill Mazeroski's walk-off home run in the 1960 World Series.
