Bob Todd to be Inducted into ABCA Hall of Fame

It has been a busy couple of days for halls of fame and Ohio State baseball. A day after it was announced that former Buckeye pitcher Steve Arlin would enter the College Baseball Hall of Fame, the American Baseball Coaches Association announced current Ohio State head baseball coach Bob Todd will be inducted into the association’s Hall of Fame.

Todd will be inducted Jan. 3, 2009 at the ABCA annual convention and joins former Ohio State baseball coaches Marty Karow and L.W. St. John as members of the ABCA’s Hall of Fame.

Since becoming the 10th head coach in OSU history in 1988, Todd, 59, has guided the Buckeyes to an 805-411-2 (.662) record. Under his guidance, the program set the school record with 52 victories in 1991and reached the 50-win plateau again in 1999. His teams have never had a losing season, have won at least 40 games 10 times in his 20-year tenure, and have never won fewer than 32 games.

Ohio State release.
