Remember Jim Lonborg?? He had a vg career, which started in Boston. I think he had close to 300 ks and 24 wins in one season early in his career; then suffered a ski injury and was never quite the same, but still pitched for about 10 years or so. Anyway, I bring him up because my dentist told me that Jim was a classmate in Dental School. Yup, after retiring, he studied dentistry, and according to my dentist was still practicing as of a few years ago. Anyone somewhere in NE need a good old dentist.

Gentleman Jim.

Can't believe he got through 67. I remember listening to his final WS start that year convinced he was just going to blow up. Now that guy worked out of his own jams.

He did sort of blow up in game 7, but it was on 2 days rest while Gibson was on his normal 3 days.

 

Lonborg did throw a 1 hit shutout in game 2 and followed that up with a 3 hit complete game in game 5.
