In August 1972 he set a major-league record by retiring 41 consecutive batters across two starts. He won at least ten games for the Giants in each season from 1973 to 1977. He finished 101-112 with a 3.56 ERA and 12 saves, pitching in 454 games. After 1978 he signed with the Angels, and later returned to the Giants for 1982 and 1983, appearing in 53 games each year. He then coached pitching at Sacramento State for 16 years.
