Eric Show #303


Born May 19, 1956, today should have been Eric Show’s 68th birthday. We discussed Show’s troubled life and tragic death this week. A talented musician, Show remains the San Diego Padres all time winningest pitcher. He pitched in the 1984 World Series, gave up a big hit to Pete Rose and struggled with drugs. Eric Show was musical, religious, political, and controversial...he was just 37 years old when he passed away on March 16, 1994.
