In that game (and his lone game that season), he pitched 2 innings and gave up only one run. He bounced around between the minors and Majors between 1980 and 1983, finally settling as a full-time reliever in 1984 with the Cubs (to whom he'd been traded along with Porfi Altamirano, Henry Cotto and Ron Hassey for Ray Fontenot and Brian Dayett).
