I remember him playing. I don't think I knew he was from Wellston.

Didn't Jeff play at Marshall U. in Huntington,WVa ? At the beginning, was he in the Red's farm system, before having a great career at Kansas City ?

Me as a kid with Jeff.

Great picture. Jeff still has family in the area. He does what Jim Day does for Kansas City Royals network. Pete Rose never really gave him a chance but he proved him wrong. The city building had a board that kept track of how many saves he had.
Not only a great player but great person.
