Timeline

1964

Bret William Saberhagen (born April 11, 1964) is an American former professional baseball right-handed starting pitcher.

1982

In 1982, during his senior year, he pitched a no-hitter and was the winning pitcher in the Los Angeles City Championship game, played at Dodger Stadium.

He also played football in high school.

Saberhagen was drafted out of high school by the Kansas City Royals in the 19th round of the 1982 Major League Baseball draft.

1984

He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Kansas City Royals, New York Mets, Colorado Rockies, and Boston Red Sox from 1984 through 1999, and a comeback in 2001.

Saberhagen made his major league debut at the age of 19 on April 4, 1984.

He made an immediate impact, compiling a 10–11 record and a 3.48 ERA.

He picked up his only major league save on July 23, 1984, during the second game of a double header.

He pitched three scoreless innings to close out a 7–2 Royals win over the Blue Jays and preserve the win for starter Frank Wills.

The Royals made the postseason but lost to the Detroit Tigers in the American League Championship Series.

Saberhagen pitched well in his first postseason start, giving up two runs in eight innings.

1985

Known for his blazing fastball and pinpoint control, Saberhagen was named a three-time All-Star, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, a Gold Glove Award winner, and the Most Valuable Player of the 1985 World Series as the Royals beat the St. Louis Cardinals in 7 games.

In 1985, the 21-year-old Saberhagen established himself as the ace of the staff.

He went 20–6 with a 2.87 ERA and won the American League Cy Young Award.

He led the Royals to a World Series championship and was named MVP of the World Series, pitching two complete games, including a shutout in Game 7.

He was also the subject of much media attention during the Series as his wife gave birth to his first son, Drew William, on the same night of the infamous Don Denkinger call.

Saberhagen developed an odd pattern of successful seasons in odd-numbered years (1985, 1987, 1989, 1991) and poor performances in even-numbered years.

1986

In 1986, he was 7–12 with a 4.12 ERA.

1987

In 1987, another odd-numbered year, Saberhagen had an excellent year, going 18–10 with a 3.36 ERA.

That record, however, was disappointing because Saberhagen had entered the All-Star break with a 15–3 record and another Cy Young Award seemingly in the bag.

He pitched in the 1987 Major League Baseball All-Star Game, but he suffered a shoulder injury that hampered his second-half performance.

1988

In 1988, the pattern continued as Saberhagen went 14–16 for the Royals with a 3.80 ERA, the second most losses in the American League.

1989

He led MLB in wins and earned run average in 1989, and threw a no-hitter in 1991.

Saberhagen was born in Chicago Heights, Illinois.

His parents, Linda and Bob, divorced when he was five years old.

He attended Grover Cleveland High School, located in Reseda, California.

Saberhagen starred in both basketball and baseball.

The following year, 1989, he returned to his old brilliance by compiling a record of 23–6 with a 2.16 ERA, leading both leagues with 12 complete games, and finishing third in strikeouts.

Before his July 26, 1989, start against the Boston Red Sox, Saberhagen had a record of 9–5.

Over the next two months, he compiled a record of 14–1 with four shutouts.

He also led the league in innings pitched, complete games, and strikeout to walk ratio.

For his efforts, Saberhagen won his second Cy Young Award as the American League's best pitcher.

1990

Despite a 5–7 record, Saberhagen was selected to the 1990 American League All-Star team, primarily due to his 1989 performance.

He rewarded the selection by being the winning pitcher in the 2–0 American League triumph.

Saberhagen pitched only one game after the all-star break before being shelved for most of the rest of 1990 with an injury.

1991

In 1991, Saberhagen went 13–8 with a 3.07 ERA.

On August 26, he no-hit the Chicago White Sox 7-0 at Royals Stadium; to date, the no-hitter is the last thrown by a Royal.

On December 11, 1991, Saberhagen was traded along with Bill Pecota to the New York Mets in exchange for Kevin McReynolds, Gregg Jefferies, and Keith Miller.

With the trade to the Mets, Saberhagen's odd-year, off-year pattern vanished.

1992

He struggled with injuries in 1992 and 1993, before bouncing back with a 14–4 record in a strike shortened 1994 season.
