Johnny Lunchbucket Old-Timey Member Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 Says Dwight Bernard in a candid 1979 interviewhttps://farm8.staticflickr.com/7903/31750606957_c6e96e5e9a_c.jpg>My goofing around the Kingman thread below got me into a kind of rabbit hole where I'm trying to de-conflate Dwight Bernard with Mark Bomback (who were traded for one another), with Mike Birkbeck and Mark Bruhert (and also, Scott Holman)
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 I wonder why they sucked, Mister 1.804 WHIP.(Although, interestingly, he faced 14 batters in four postseason appearances in 1981 and 1982 and retired all 14. Neat.)

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 Such a beardy staff they had in 1979. It was like long hair was to the 2016 pitching squad.
