The only HOF'er I could come up with that wore the number 37 was Casey Stengel, but as a manager.
Casey Stengel played Baseball From 1912 -1925 before ballplayers wore numbers on their uniforms. It was not until 1929 when the Yankees became the first team to use numbers regularly, and about 1937 before every team wore numbers.
Numbers were first given out to players as to their position in the batting order. For example Babe Ruth batted third in the line up, and wore number 3, Lou Gehrig wore number 4 as he batted fourth. Most numbers handed out in the early days were low numbers, and reserved for the top stars of the team therefore most Hall Of Fame players would have a number below the number 37. Higher numbers are often given to rookie players, and as they become a more prominent player on the team might switch to a lower number.
As time goes on and the lower numbers are retired from use, more stars will be wearing higher numbers, and in the future more HOF'ers will have the number 37. For a list of players that wore or are wearing the number 37 see Related Links below.
In baseball, Dizzy Dean and John Havlicek in basketball. Dean had a great pitching career before he was struck by an Earl Averill line drive in the toe during a game. He tried to come back too early, changed his pitching motion, and hurt his arm. He played primarily with the St. Louis Cardinals with a short stint with the Chicago Cubs. Havlicek spent his entire career as a Boston Celtics forward. No football hall of famer has worn number 17.
