Veteran pitcher Dave Righetti came to spring training with the White Sox in 1995 as a non-roster invitee and was unable to earn a spot with the big league club, but general manager Ron Schueler offered him a chance to go to Triple A Nashville and try to prove that he could still pitch effectively.\u00a0 In 2 1\/2 months with the Sounds, Righetti made 15 starts, putting up the third lowest ERA in the league, and strengthened his arm.<\/p>\n

With the White Sox needing pitching help, Righetti was called up and made his season debut in New York against the Yankees, his home for 11 seasons.\u00a0 “Anybody who pays the price, you’re happy to see him\u00a0succeed,” manager Terry Bevington said. “He paid his dues. It’s the American way.”\u00a0 Righetti ended up appearing in 10 games for the White Sox, starting 9 of them, finishing with a 3-2 record with a 4.20 ERA.<\/p>\n

Following the season, Righetti became a free agent and, finding that no team was interested in his services, he decided to retire.<\/p>\n
