Now come the third class of inductees. Those members who have actually played for the franchise, but during its past years in other cities. Still, the franchise wanted to honor those players who played hard for the franchise in past years or who had a link to Terriers ownership via D.C. Daly.

So far, that list extends to Floyd Yarbrough who pitched tireless for those terrible El Paso teams from 1967-1973, before being rescued by DC in 1974, pitching Quad City to a RL pennant that year and winning titles in his career with Chicago in 1975 and Hartford in 1977. Prior to that, he was a two-time College Pitcher of the Year at BYU and a 3-time FOOL All-Star and most notably, ended his FOOL career as the all-time strikeout leader with 3,490 Ks.
