Besides having a&#160;really cool handlebar&#160;mustache,&#160;Rollie was a tremendous relief pitcher for the A&#8217;s, Padres and Brewers from 1968 &#8211; 1985. &#160;He was a seven time All Star, and had the rare pitching honor of winning the Cy Young and MVP awards in 1981 when he had a miniscule 1.04 ERA and 28 saves. &#160;He saved a total of 341 games in his career and was a major contributor to the early 1970&#8217;s A&#8217;s dynasty.<\/p>\n<p>Well, that&#8217;s all I have on Rollie. If you&#8217;d like to watch his interview,&#160;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=d9QWWOERlLA\">just click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Hope you liked the interview. &#160;Please check back again real soon for more of &#8220;all the buzz on what wuzz.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey baseball fans!
