Sports legend, Detroit Tigers pitcher from the 60s and 70s, Mickey Lolich. He was 85.
Most well known for pitching 3 complete game wins in the 1968 World Series, the last two, in Games 5 and 7, were wins over the great Bob Gibson, who had an incredible 1.12 ERA in 1968. Lolich was a somewhat improbable hero, as teammate Denny McLain had won 31 games in the regular season that year, which was the last time that will ever happen.
All a bit ahead of my time, as I was a 6 year-old. But I've heard it recounted many times by Tigers fans, not the least of whom is our friend Todd 'the Vinyl Junkie' Green out in Three Forks, MT.
