Books and articles about Wayne Simpson

In his first season, Simpson started the year by winning 13 of his first 14 decisions (the loss came when a dropped pop fly let in two unearned runs), including a one-hitter, a two-hitter, and a three-hitter, and was selected for the All-Star team. But shoulder problems limited him to just two appearances after July; he finished 14-3, 3.08. The injury hampered him for the rest of his career; in his only other good season, 1972, he went 8-5 with a 4.14 ERA. (SH)
