What with Consciousness III around the corner and Yale so hip, I guess they figure this is a good a time as any to begin attempting to fulfill that responsibility.

The five starters (Norris, Langford, Keough, Steve McCatty, Brian Kingman) turned in 17 complete games in 21 starts-so many that the team's relievers worked a total of only 11% innings. One forlorn reliever, Bob Owchinko, did not throw a single pitch that counted. The A's team earned-run average was a minuscule 1.89.
