BIO: Rollie Fingers MLB Hall of Fame inductee, 3×World Series Champion 1972–1974, 1974 World Series MVP, 1981 Cy Young Award Winner American League, 1981 AL MVP, 7× All-Star (1973–1976, 1978, 1981, 1982), 3× MLB saves leader (1977, 1978, 1981), 4× Rolaids Relief Man Award (1977, 1978, 1980, 1981). He played 17 seasons in Major League Baseball for the Oakland Athletics (1968–1976), San Diego Padres (1977–1980), and Milwaukee Brewers (1981–1985). Fingers's effectiveness as a relief pitcher helped redefine the value of relievers within baseball and helped usher in the modern closer role. Fingers retired in 1985 with 341 career saves, the most in MLB history until surpassed by Jeff Reardon in 1992. Fingers was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1992, making him just the second reliever elected. He is also one of only a few MLB players to have his number retired by more than one club (Oakland Athletics and Milwaukee Brewers). Fingers is also known for his neatly groomed handlebar mustache.
