Doug Sisk is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on September 26, 1957 in Renton, Renton, United States. Douglas Randall Sisk (born September 26, 1957), is a former Major League Baseball relief pitcher. His primary pitch was a sinker that was difficult for batters to drive in the air.
During his nine-year major-league career, Sisk allowed only 15 home runs in over 500 innings. His only career run batted in came on June 11, 1985. The Mets were already losing 16-0 in the second inning when Sisk entered the game. Batting in the third inning, Sisk grounded out to shortstop Steve Jeltz. Clint Hurdle scored from third for the Mets’ first run. Sisk also pitched 2.1 scoreless innings that allowed the Mets to cut the deficit to 16-7. He was lifted in the fifth for a pinch hitter. Promptly afterwards, the Phillies scored ten more off Joe Sambito.
In the post season, Sisk pitched a scoreless inning in game four of the 1986 National League Championship Series and a scoreless .2 of an inning in game two of the World Series, both losses.
The elbow surgery had Sisk rehabbing in Tidewater to start the 1986 season. After nine games and thirty innings, Sisk returned to the Mets in late May. In his first appearance, he allowed two runs in one inning in a 10-2 blowout at the hands of the San Francisco Giants. From there, he went 2-1 with a 0.47 ERA in nine appearances through July 2. A rough month of July (5.30 ERA) cost his the trust of manager Davey Johnson, and he spent the rest of the season pitching almost exclusively in blowouts. That said, he pitched well, going 2-0 with a 2.62 ERA and one save. He did not allow a home run all season.
He was having a similarly stellar 1984 season until he developed a sore shoulder. Through June 8, Sisk had allowed only three earned runs through 53.2 innings pitched for an 0.47 ERA. His ERA crept up to 1.40 by the time he took the mound to face the Cubs on July 28.

Sisk earned all-league honors both seasons he spent playing college baseball at Green River Community College. From there, he spent two more seasons with the Washington State University Cougars before signing as an amateur free agent with the New York Mets in 1980. In his first season of professional baseball with the Kingsport Mets, Sisk went 8-5 with a 2.66 earned run average as a starting pitcher. He was moved into the bullpen the following season with the Lynchburg Mets. Over three seasons in the Mets’ farm system, Sisk was 25-14 with a 2.88 ERA, sixteen saves and 170 strikeouts to earn a September call up in 1982.
The 1983 season opener marked the return of Tom Seaver in a Mets uniform. Seaver pitched six scoreless innings, matched by fellow future Hall of Famer Steve Carlton. Sisk entered in the seventh, and held the Philadelphia Phillies scoreless for the combined shutout. Meanwhile, the Mets broke through with two in the seventh to give Sisk his first career win. For the season, he went 5-4 with a 2.24 ERA as the right handed complement to Jesse Orosco. His eleven saves were second to Orosco’s seventeen.
Lingering injuries hindered Sisk in 1985. Opposing batters were hitting .337, and his ERA was 8.53 when he was sent down to triple A Tidewater in early May. Despite going 0-2 with a 7.20 ERA for the Tidewater Tides, he returned to the Mets in late May. By then, Roger McDowell had emerged as the right handed closer for the Mets, and Sisk was pretty much relegated to “mop up duty.”
