Lefty Dave Righetti debuted briefly in 1979 with the New York Yankees before winning American League Rookie of the Year honors in 1981. In 15 starts that season, he went 8-4 with a 2.05 ERA. After making 31 starts and throwing a No-Hitter in 1983, "Rags" transitioned seamlessly as the Yankees closer in 1984 with 31 saves and a 2.34 ERA. He made the AL All-Star team in '86 and led the league with 46 saves. His final season as a player came in 1995 with the White Sox. From 2000 to 2017, Righetti served as pitching coach for the San Francisco Giants and won three World Series (2010, 2012 & 2014), guiding baseball's most dominant staff during that run.
