Ooh. He was a member of the 1984 Cubs, coming over in the trade with Rick Sutcliffe for Joe Carter and Mel Hall. He pitched in 6 postseason games, in which his teams went 1-5.

/Looks up the lyrics in French
Me: Oh, I think I see why.
/Looks up the lyrics with English translation

The fact that he projected power, respect, and intimidation, all while being wheelchair-bound and never speaking, was a perfect marriage of writing and acting. RIP indeed.
