Roland Glen Fingers Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Roland Glen Fingers (born August 25, 1946) is a retired American Major League Baseball relief pitcher. During his 18-year baseball career, he pitched for the Oakland Athletics (1968–76), San Diego Padres (1977–80) and Milwaukee Brewers (1981–85). In 1992, he became only the second reliever to be elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Fingers is also one of only a few MLB players to have his number retired by more than one club (Oakland Athletics and Milwaukee Brewers). During his career, Fingers was known just as much for his neatly groomed handlebar mustache as he was for his hard biting sinker.
Inducted into the International Mustache Hall of Fame in 2015 (inaugural class) in the category Sports.
