Dan Quisenberry was a right-handed relief pitcher in Major League Baseball who played primarily for the Kansas City
Royals. Notable for his submarine-style pitching delivery and his humorous quotes,
he led the American League in saves a record five times (1980, 1982-85), and retired in 1990 with 244 saves,
then the 6th-highest total in history behind Rollie Fingers (341), Rich "Goose" Gossage (307), Bruce Sutter (300),
Jeff Reardon (287), and Lee Smith (265).
From 1980 to 1985, Quisenberry was the American League's dominant closer, winning the Rolaids Relief Man Award
in all but the strike-shortened 1981 season, and finishing in the top five in voting for the Cy Young Award -
again in all but 1981.
At the age of 37, after 12 seasons in the majors, Quisenberry retired.
In December 1997, Quisenberry was diagnosed with brain cancer; he died in 1998 in Leawood, Kansas.
