We remember Bob Forsch (1950-2011)

We remember Bob Forsch, who was born in Sacramento on this day in 1950.  

Bob broke with St. Louis in 1974 and turned into a very steady pitcher in the National League.    He won 168 games with a 3.76 ERA over 19 seasons and pitched in the 1982, 1985 and 1987 World Series.     Forsch threw a no-hitter in 1978 against the Phillies and in 1983 against Expos. 

Bob died in 2011.   His brother, Ken, was also a major league pitcher.
