Noted Phillie killer passed away today. Had a few 20 win seasons for the Cards. I remember him as an Astro too. RIP

I lived in Houston as a kid when he played there. Good pitcher. R.I.P.

As a Cardinal he said he had a favorite English word: "Youneverknow."
Great competitor gone too soon.

Didn't he have an infamous meltdown in World Series over a call at 1st base?

Yep. the 1985 STL-KC World Series after the Don Denkinger missed call at first base in Game 6. Game 7 was lost composure on full display. Denkinger was behind home plate in Game 7. Andujar pitched in the 5th inning and had two major blow-ups. Royals won 11-0.

 

[Victor E. Bell]

He used to like to point his finger and thumb at the opposition like a gun and "shoot" out opposing hitters. He was a character.
