I picked Mark Davis instead. In 1986 with had both Cy Young Winners (Sabes and Davis) on our pitching staff.
I remember this story because I was painting my house and was listening to the Royals. I think Hal McRae was manager. Anyway, we had a double header with Milwaukee. They send Mark Davis out to start. He gives up like six or seven runs in the first inning. McRae pulls him and tells him to get ready, because he's going to start game two of the double header because he only pitched an inning. Between games, Davis decides to shave off his beard and moustache. So in game two, a newly clean shaven Davis strides to the mound...
And proceeds to give up five runs in the first inning of the second game.
Gets bounced to the bullpen, and never starts again.
On a side note, I was at the game where Mazzaro gave up 13 runs to Cleveland in one inning. Kyle Davies started that game, btw....
