The Life and Story of Lyman Bostock
When people remember Lyman Bostock, the first thing that pops into their heads is his death and how he died – which is understandable because it was so shocking and unnecessary. That’s a shame, though, because they are missing the essential part of this story – the life that he led. Bostock grew up poor without a father and never let that discourage him from his goals. The man was a giver. After signing his first huge free-agent contract in 1978, he donated money to a church in his native Birmingham that needed help. That’s the kind of person Bostock was. Unfortunately, you don’t find his style in society very often these days.

The next time you hear somebody mention Lyman Bostock, instead of talking about how he died, maybe bring up how he lived because that is the most extraordinary part of Bostock’s story.

Lyman Bostock was killed in Gary, Indiana. For those of you who used to play Start-O-Matic baseball, y9ou may remember this...

In honor of Bostock, a Gary Indian policeman (James Sanders) organized an annual "Lyman Bostock Memorial Strat-O-Matic Tournament" which was held in Hobart, Indiana. My brother (ff09) and I played in this tournament multiple times.
