his teammate was Tim Stoddard. He's from East Chicago. He, obviously then, played on the team that beat UCLA (avenging loss) to break their chain. He'd been a state champion on the hoops team (loaded). He was part of that 84 Cubs team that broke my heart (screw you Garvey), actually then signed with the Padres for 85 in Free Agency

He and Kenny Lofton (also East Chicago) are the only two to play on World Series team and NCAA FF.

I'm drawing a blank though on the trivia answer.
