Rivera's Hall plaque is a little odd. I don't know the process of writing and signing off on the wording on the plaques, but I'm always bewildered at what nicknames the writer thinks needs to be spelled out. For example, Piazza's plaque reads: Michael Joseph Piazza "Mike". We needed to be told that a guy named Michael went by Mike? But Seaver's doesn't say George Thomas Seaver "Tom", or even "The Franchise" or "Tom Terrific."



I bring this up because Rivera's plaque lists two nicknames: "Mo" and "The Sandman." Now, I know Rivera's entrance song was "Enter Sandman," but did you ever hear anyone call him that?

Same boat for me. And that goes as well for pro golfers.
