Excerpt: Frank Edwin “Tug” McGraw Jr. (August 30, 1944 January 5, 2004) was a Major League Baseball relief pitcher and the father of Country music singer Tim McGraw and actor/TV personality Mark McGraw. He is likely best remembered for recording the final out, via a strikeout of the Kansas City Royals’ Willie Wilson, in the 1980 World Series, bringing the Philadelphia Phillies their first world championship. He was the last active major league player to have played under manager Casey Stengel. Tug was born in Martinez, California to Frank Edwin “Big Mac” McGraw, Sr. and Mable McKenna. He got the nickname “Tug” from his mother because of the particularly aggressive way he breast-fed. Frank Senior was the great-grandson of Irish immigrants. Tug graduated from St. Vincent Ferrer High School in Vallejo, California in 1962. He enrolled in Solano Community College, and signed with the New York Mets as an amateur free agent on June 12, 1964 upon graduation. McGraw was used both as a starting pitcher and out of the bullpen in the minors, and after just one season in the Mets’ farm system, where he went 64 with a 1.64 earned run average in Rookie and class A ball, McGraw made the Mets out of Spring training 1965 without ever having played double or triple A ball. That same year, when asked if he liked the new artificial grass in the Houston Astrodome, he said, “I don’t know, I never smoked AstroTurf” . McGraw made the team as a reliever, and was 01 with a 3.12 ERA and one save when he made his first major league start on July 28 against the Chicago Cubs in the second game of a double header at Wrigley Field. He Lasted just two-thirds of an inning and gave up three earned runs on his way to a 90 loss (the Cubs blew the Mets out in the first game as well, 72). O… More:
