![]() But for whatever reason he signed with the White Sox and actually pitched pretty well for the rest of the year. (I agree with John Q., seeing Lefty in a Giants uniform is just weird.) He probably should have stayed retired at this point. He was picked up by the Giants, got strikeout number 4,000, and promptly retired. In 1986 he got off to a bad start, and the Phillies released him when he was just 18 strikeouts away from 4,000. He was out most of 1985 with a rotator cuff injury, but then pitched reasonably well, despite his 1-8 record. Steve Carlton is my favorite baseball player, and I'd rather not think about his career from 1985-88.
