Thomas Edward Hall (born November 23, 1947) is an American former professional baseball left-handed pitcher, who played in Major League Baseball (MLB) from 1968 to 1977. Listed at 6 feet (180 cm) tall and 150 pounds (68 kg), he was nicknamed "The Blade", owing to his slender physique.[1]

Hall played for the Minnesota Twins, Cincinnati Reds, New York Mets, and Kansas City Royals during his big league career. He was with the Reds during their early years as the "Big Red Machine", during which time they won 2 National League Western Division championships and one National League (NL) pennant.

Hall was traded by the Twins to the Reds for Wayne Granger on December 3, 1971.[2] Hall made his final Major League appearance on May 21, 1977, with the Royals. He had a career record of 52-33 with 32 saves.
