Wayne Garland

Marcus Wayne Garland (born October 26, 1950) is a retired American professional baseball player.

He was then selected in the 1969 Major League Baseball draft by the St. Louis Cardinals, but again, did not sign a contract.

Garland pitched for several years in the minor leagues posting generally lackluster numbers with a 7–9 record in 1972 and 10–11 in 1973.

Over the season, he made six starts, including a game where he pitched eight innings of no-hit baseball.

After the Orioles traded Ken Holtzman and Doyle Alexander to the New York Yankees in June, a spot in the starting rotation opened for Garland.

In his first spring training game of 1978, he injured his arm, but continued pitching after receiving cortisone.

After six regular season starts, he was diagnosed with a torn rotator cuff and underwent surgery.
