  • Eduardo Figueroa Padilla, is a former Major League Baseball player. Figueroa played in the majors from 1974-1981 for the California Angels, New York Yankees, Texas Rangers and Oakland Athletics. His best season came in 1978 with the Yankees as a starting pitcher, when he posted a won-loss record of 20-9 and helped the Yankees win the World Series. Figueroa was and still is the first and only pitcher from Puerto Rico to win 20 games in a season. After winning 16 games for the Angels in his second big-league season, Figueroa was traded with center fielder Mickey Rivers to the Yankees for All-Star outfielder Bobby Bonds in December 1975. While not a glamorous strikeout pitcher in the vein of teammate "Louisiana Lightning" Ron Guidry or as charismatic (at least in name) as Catfish Hunter, Figueroa nevertheless was one of the premier right-handers in the American League in his first three seasons in Yankee pinstripes. He won 55 games in 101 starts for the Yankees from 1976-1978, but injuries limited him to 10 wins and only 34 starts in his final four seasons. Figueroa ranked seventh in Cy Young Award balloting in 1978 and fourth in 1976.
