Denny McLain will historically be remembered as the last Major League pitcher in history to win at least thirty ballgames during a single season and the first since Lefty Grove (31) in the American League (1931) or Dizzy Dean (30) in the National League (1930), but did you know that on the back cover of the musical album Denny McLain in Las Vegas, appeared the following quote, "I hope that the fans will remember me as an outstanding professional musician. That is my real goal in life."?
