Annual Prayer Breakfast with Baseball Legend Bobby Richardson

Robert Clinton "Bobby" Richardson is a former second baseman in Major League Baseball who played for the New York Yankees from 1955 through 1966. He is the only World Series MVP ever to be selected from the losing team. He wore the uniform number 1 (one) for the majority of his career (1958–1966).

Richardson won three World Series (1958, 1961, 1962) of the seven he played with the Yankees (1957, 1958, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964). He caught the final out of the 1962 Series, snaring a screaming line drive off the bat of Willie McCovey.

Richardson served as the head baseball coach for the South Carolina Gamecocks from 1970–1976 and coached them to a second-place finish in the 1975 College World Series—the first CWS in the school's history. Richardson is considered the father of South Carolina Gamecocks Baseball and is credited with having set them on their path to becoming one of the elite college baseball programs in the NCAA still today.

Richardson is a born-again Christian. He is a national leader in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and a much sought-after Christian speaker. At the invitation of President Richard Nixon, preached at the White House. Richardson officiated at his Yankee teammate Mickey Mantle's funeral.
