Timeline
Wickman ended his career with 511 games finished, ranking 34th all time among major league pitchers.
Wickman was known to rely on his sinker to save games.
He credited much of the motion on his sinker to missing part of his index finger.
Robert Joe Wickman (born February 6, 1969) is an American former professional baseball relief pitcher.
After high school, he attended University of Wisconsin–Whitewater, and was selected by the Chicago White Sox in the 1990 Major League Baseball draft (2nd round) and signed by area scout Mike Rizzo.
He played 15 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) for five teams: the New York Yankees (1992–1996), Milwaukee Brewers (1996–2000), Cleveland Indians (2000–2006), Atlanta Braves (2006–2007), and Arizona Diamondbacks (2007).
He batted and threw right-handed.
Wickman is from Abrams, Wisconsin.
During a childhood farming accident, he lost part of his index finger on his right hand.
At Oconto Falls High School, he played football, baseball, horseback riding, table tennis and basketball, being named an All-State pick in basketball.
In 1992, he was sent by Chicago to the New York Yankees in the same trade that brought Steve Sax to the White Sox.
Wickman's career with the Yankees began with a superb record of 20–5 in his first two seasons (1992–1993), including a 14–4 mark in 1993.
In the strike-shortened 1994 season, Wickman appeared in an American League-high 53 games, all in relief, and posted a 3.09 earned run average (ERA) for the league-leading Yankees.
Though he slumped to a 4.05 ERA in 1995, he rebounded to pitch three shutout innings in the Division Series against the Seattle Mariners.
The Yankees lost that series in five games to Seattle.
The Brewers later sent Ricky Bones to the Yankees and reacquired Listach as Listach was injured at the time of the trade.
After the Yankees won the World Series, they gave Wickman a World Series ring for being part of the active roster during the 1996 season.
Wickman made his first All-Star Game appearance in 2000 as a member of the Milwaukee Brewers.
The day after Wickman was traded to the Cleveland Indians, the Brewers chose to hold a Bob Wickman Poster Night.
He was involved in a seven-player trade between the Brewers and Cleveland Indians, which included sending Richie Sexson to Milwaukee.
On May 7, 2006, Wickman became the Indians' all-time franchise leader in saved games with 130, surpassing the record previously held by Doug Jones.
On July 20, 2006, Wickman was traded to the Atlanta Braves for Max Ramírez.
Wickman then served as Atlanta's closer, recording his first save on July 24.
On September 20, 2006, Wickman signed a one-year $6.5 million contract extension to stay with the Atlanta Braves for the 2007 season.
On August 24, 2007, after giving up a walk-off two-run home run to Adam Dunn of the Cincinnati Reds in extra innings, Wickman complained to manager Bobby Cox about pitching in non-save situations.
Consequently, he was released.
On September 7, 2007, Wickman signed a contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks, a move that signaled that he had backed off his disdain for non-save situations, given that the team had an established closer in José Valverde.
Wickman pitched in 8 games for the Diamondbacks, going 0–1 with a 1.35 ERA.
He became a free agent after the season, subsequently retiring.
His 139 saves with the Indians was a club record until Cody Allen passed it July 3, 2018, and his 45 saves on the season in 2005 is tied for second-best in team history.
