On TV: Pat Underwood’s Debut, May 31, 1979
Today is Pat Underwood‘s 67th birthday. He was one of my favorite players during the early years of my Tigers fandom. Here’s a rebroadcast of his major-league debut, against his brother Tom, on May 31, 1979.
Check out this excellent bio of Underwood written by Todd McDorman as part of the SABR Bio Project.

Today’s Grid
⚾️ Immaculate Grid 313 9/9: Rarity: 13
I also almost went with Lance Parrish instead of Scott Rolen but I wasn’t 100% confident Lance appeared in a game for the Jays. So, after completing the one below, I started a new grid and swapped out Lance for Rolen — 5% for Rolen v.s. 0.4% for Lance. I put in all the other picks from below and it dropped my Rarity from 13 to 9! Should have gone with my instincts.
Have a great weekend. See you tomorrow.
