When the Chicago Cubs weren’t very good, I remember Moe Drabowsky.
He was a right-handed relief pitcher who played for the Chicago Cubs from 1956-60 who seemed to epitomize the Cubs, who had losing records, in that era. Drabowsky also came in the game and got hit pretty hard. I was a boy back then, and wondered, “who is this guy?”
Well, that guy, in this 30’s turned around his career and pitched great for the Baltimore Orioles, and was on two World Series winning teams. In 1966, he came in Game 1 and was lights out.
