Ok Al, you've piqued my curiosity. Pitched one year in the majors, was 8-4 with a 3.67 ERA. If I'm a manager, that's a guy that's getting a roster spot, or at the very least, an invite to spring training in 1959. But that was it for him. Out of the majors at 24 years of age.
Wikipedia's limited page for him doesn't mention anything peculiar. So what happened?
