Happy Birthday–August 12
Christy Mathewson (1880)
Ray Schalk (1892)
Harlond Clift (1912)
Fred Hutchinson (1919)
Bob Buhl (1928)
Kevin Cooney (1950)
Matt Clement (1974)
Lew Ford (1976)
A notoriously bad hitter, even for a pitcher, Bob Buhl had a lifetime average of .089 and went the entire 1962 season without getting a hit (0-for-70). Oddly, he equaled his career high in walks that year with six, which goes to show something or other.
Kevin Cooney was an eleventh round draft choice of the Twins in 1972. He pitched in the Twins’ organization for two seasons, then a shoulder injury ended his playing career. He then became a college baseball coach. He was the head coach at Montclair State from 1984-1987 and at Florida Atlantic from 1988-2008.
We would like to wish a happy birthday to MagUidhir's niece and nephew.
