About Dave McNally
McNally finished 13-17 in 1972, his first losing record since 1964, despite a 2.95 ERA and six shutouts. He completed 12 of his 36 starts. His 1973 Topps card, #600, is a high number from the fifth series, showing him with Baltimore.
Dave McNally was a left-handed pitcher who spent all but the final season of a fourteen-year career with the Baltimore Orioles, signed out of Billings, Montana in 1960 and debuting September 26, 1962 with a two-hit shutout of Kansas City. He won 20 or more games four straight years, 1968 through 1971; the 1971 Orioles, with Jim Palmer, Mike Cuellar and Pat Dobson, remain the last team to field four 20-game winners. A three-time All-Star (1969, 1970, 1972), he clinched the 1966 World Series sweep with a four-hit shutout of the Dodgers and, in 1970, became the only pitcher in major-league history to hit a World Series grand slam, off Cincinnati's Wayne Granger. He finished 184-119 with a 3.24 ERA and 1,512 strikeouts. Retired in June 1975 with the Expos, he lent his name to the grievance arbitrator Peter Seitz decided that December, breaking baseball's reserve clause. Baltimore put him in its team Hall of Fame in 1978; he died of cancer in his native Billings on December 1, 2002.
