8X all star catcher - Lance Parrish - hit 33 HRs for the 1984 Tigers who won 35 of their 1st 40 games. That stat still blows me away.

Peter Ueberroth
Not a baseball player ( was commish of MLB in the 80's ) but IMO, one of the best commissioners the game has had in a very, very long time ( sorry folks, I'm NOT a fan of Selig. )
I had to throw this one out there because of the rare last name starting with a U and don't think I remember his name ever being brought up before in a baseball thread here on C-D, and don't think a lot of baseball fans ( even those that were following the game in the 80's ) remember Ueberroth all that well.
