Years With White Sox: 1984-1985
With the White Sox struggling to repeat as AL West champions, they made a move to shore up the bullpen, sending Salome Barojas to the Mariners in exchange for Jerry Don Gleaton and Gene Nelson. Gleaton put up good numbers in Triple A for the White Sox and was eventually called up to the big leagues, appearing in 11 games.
Gleaton again split the 1985 season between Triple A and the White Sox, with more success in Triple A. He made it in to 31 games for the White Sox, but put up a 5.76 ERA.
Gleaton spent all of 1986 in Triple A before leaving the White Sox organization as a free agent.
Gleaton’s numbers in a White Sox uniform, both for games I attended and overall, were:
| Wins | Losses | ERA | Saves | IP | Hits | Runs | ER | Walks | Strike Outs | HR | HBP | Appearances |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0 | 54.05 | 0 | 0.333 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 2 | 2 | 4.88 | 3 | 48 | 57 | 31 | 26 | 19 | 26 | 5 | 1 | 42 |
