Mark (The Bird) Fidrych
American League MVP 1976     Detroit Tigers

Played 5 short years in the majors from 1976-1980. He has a .604 winning percentage. He is a two-time All-Star and was the 1976 Rookie of the Year. Fidrych was called "The Bird" for his tall, lean body and unorthodox pitching style. 

One of his hobbies now that he's retired is snowmobiling. Last winter he join the Wertz Warriors, and AMSOIL Dealers Mike Ellis and Tom Kirby, for a good cause. Each year the Warriors take Special Olympians and kids with disabilities on a snowmobile ride. It's the ride of their life and one the kids don't soon forget.
