Player Biography
With his blazing fastball and intimidating scowl, Richard “Goose” Gossage redefined success for relievers. After breaking in with the White Sox in 1972, Gossage found his role when manager Chuck Tanner made him his bullpen ace in 1975. Gossage saved 26 games that season and another 26 in 1977 after a trade to the Pirates. He left for free agent riches in New York in 1978, helping the Yankees win the World Series that year by saving 27 games and winning 10 more. Then in 1984 – in his first season with the Padres – Gossage saved 25 games to help San Diego win its first National League pennant. He finished his 22-year big league career with 124 wins, 310 saves and nine All-Star Game selections.
