Answer: B – Mike Krukow

Krukow was 8-11 on that team with a 3.38 ERA. He was arguably the best player on the worst team in history. Kuiper was also on the team, but didn’t throw a pitch.

Vida Blue, also a member of the Giants broadcast team, was also a starter for the team that year going 8-8 with a 4.47 ERA. As was Bill Laskey, going 5-11 in 19 starts. So the Giants broadcast team combined to win 21 games that year. (But lost 30). But they had very little hitting as well.
