They got beat up!

 

[GillJET]

How about John Rocker

Man that would have been absolutely pathetic if a relief pitcher gave up 50 in a season, lol. It’s a starter, post 70s.

 

[dtodd4475]

Robin Roberts? I remember him although he was a hall of fame stud, also being known for giving up the long Ball.

 

[dtodd4475]

You have to be a good pitcher to be left in that much to give up 50...lol

[GillJET]

Bert Blyleven

That was probably an easy one for you. You’re up.

 

[dukiejay]

We all remember the famous home run by Kirk Gibson in the 1988 World Series off Dennis Eckersley. There was a runner on first who swiped second, and at that point many felt the A’s should have put Gibson on with an intentional walk. Who was on-deck for the Dodgers?

 

[skysdad]

Steve Sax. OFC

 

[IFaZe]

Who’s “we” OFC? lol I’ll never win

 

[skysdad]

[dukiejay]

Sax is correct....

 

[hart2chesson]

Duke snider

The Duke! Once played a heel in a Rifleman episode!! OFC

 

[JustAfanatic]

I knew it had to be Sax, Snyder, or Joc Peterson.

 

[skysdad]

Reggie Jackson hit three consecative home runs in the 1977 W.S. against three different pitchers. Name the pitcher he hit his second off of. OFC

 

[dtodd4475]

Bert Hooton ?

 

[skysdad]

Bert Hooton ?

He was the first pitcher who gave up a home run. OFC

 

[dtodd4475]

Dang, I know the 3rd as well, but seem to have forgotten the 2nd.

 

[skysdad]

He was a journeyman relief pitcher from the Domincan Republic that played for 8 MLB teams. OFC

 

[skysdad]

I like it when someone gets the answer right. This pitcher has the same last name as a former MLB player and home run hitter that played in three decades of MLB baseball. OFC

 

[skysdad]

_ l _ _ s _ _ s _ OFC
