Dogged by injuries throughout his career (he missed all of the 1975 season with an
ailing back), the 6'5" power pitcher had two good seasons. In 1971 he went 12-10,
with 14 saves, and in 1974 he was 10-4 with a 2.73 ERA. He hit .329 in 50 games as
an outfielder with Appleton (Midwest League) in 1972.
