Saw him pitch a rehab start for Peoria Cubs. I was 9
Career #s
69.5 WAR
214 Wins
3.37 ERA
He could hit as well!
Few late inning games he PH.
Great Cub.
Great player.
Rick and Paul. Two brothers who both pitched for the Cubs. Wonderful people. I used to see Paul at church every week. Just a really good person.
I remember Rick nailing a low liner to right field, which bounced directly to the right fielder, who threw him out at 1st base. Great pitcher, who hit .179 as a Cub (above the Mervis/Wisdom line).
I have an old baseball card that says that’s Paul Reuschel…

My first favorite Cub. (He or Kingman)
