Ripley was playing semi-pro ball in Rhode Island when he was signed by the Red Sox, for whom his father, Walt, pitched briefly in 1935. He was 9-10 with the 1980 Giants but completed only 2 of 20 starts. He was the winning pitcher in the Cubs' 8,000th victory, a fact reported in Ripley's Believe It or Not. (JCA)
