Back When There Was Baseball: Rance Mulliniks

Our guest this week is Rance Mulliniks. Rance played from 1977-1992 for the California Angels, Kansas City Royals and the Toronto Blue Jays. He was traded to the Blue Jays in 1982, where he finally got a chance to play every day. He credits Cito Gaston for elevating his hitting. Rance was also an outstanding glove and for several years in the mid-1980s, was one of the top 3rd basemen in the American League. He became a designated hitter later in his career while he helped Kelly Gruber transition to the starting 3rd baseman.  Rance won a World Series in his last season, 1992. Due to a back injury that hampered him early in his career, he was forced to retire after the 1992 season. Enjoy this trip Back When There Was Baseball with our guest Rance Mulliniks.
