Tom "Flash" Gordon enjoyed an outstanding 21-year Major League career with the Kansas City Royals, Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, Houston Astros, Chicago White Sox, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, and Arizona Diamondbacks. A three-time All-Star, Gordon captured the 1998 American League Rolaids Relief Man Award after successfully transitioning from a starting pitcher into one of baseball's premier closers.
