Butch Wynegar


Born on this date, Butch Wynegar.

"The worst thing that can happen to a ballplayer is to get married and then go to spring training. Wynegar did that and he's had a miserable year. He was playing 'hands' with his wife during spring training and instead of running around the outfield, he did his running around the bedroom." - Twins owner Calvin Griffith (1978)
