Last time was a 7-1 win for burgers. Will this one be luckier for gum?
Wendy's stays firm with the spring headshot, while Topps mixes it up with Berenguer warming up pregame in Detroit.Mostly a reliever in his career, 1984 was Berenguer's only season where he was primarily a starter. In 27 starts he went 11-10 with a 3.48 ERA. He did not pitch in the postseason. Berenguer was a talented but erratic pitcher for several teams before landing with the Tigers in 1983. Famed pitching coach Roger Craig taught Berenguer the split-fingered fastball and he used it with considerable success as a starter for the Tigers and a reliever for the Giants, Twins and Braves. Overall, in 490 games (95 starts) over a 15-year career, he went 67-62 with 32 saves and a 3.90 ERA. Berenguer was known as "Pancho Villa" during his playing days due to his resemblance to the Mexican revolutionary. He most recent job was selling cars at Lincoln of Bloomington, near Minneapolis.

Gum for me. Who was the pitching coach?

ReplyDeleteFor once, the Burger loses on account of the details!
ReplyDeleteGum. He looks much better when he's smiling. He seems slightly confused on the Wendy's one.
