Pagan was primarily a reliever, but was 0-5 lifetime in that role while going 4-4
in 18 starts. He was dealt to Baltimore from the Yankees along with Rick Dempsey,
Scott McGregor, Tippy Martinez, and Rudy May for Ken Holtzman, Doyle Alexander, Grant
Jackson, Ellie Hendricks, and pitcher Jimmy Freeman, one of the most unprofitable
deals the Yankees ever made.

FROM THE BASEBALL CHRONOLOGY
»April 10, 1976:
The Brewers trail 9–6 with the bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th inning at a full County Stadium. Because of crowd noise, Yankee relief P Dave Pagan does not hear the time-out called by 1B Chris Chambliss. Pagan pitches to Don Money, who hits a grand slam. Because of the time-out the home run is nullified. Money bats again, and hits a sacrifice ?y. The final score is 9–7 and the Brewers protest the game.
