To me, Abbott's greatest legacy was what happened at the end of his career in 1999. Abbott was pitching horribly that season, and he retired shortly afterward ........ and that was ALL that the fans and the sportswriters were talking about. Brewers fans (and their local sportswriters) were annoyed that Abbott was consistently getting shelled, and were calling for him to retire. When Abbott was a rookie in 1989, everybody was talking about the fact that he only had one arm, and were wondering if the Angels were using him as publicity similar to when Pete Gray played for the St. Louis Browns in 1945. But he pitched effectively for almost a decade in the Major Leagues, and by the time that he retired nobody was talking about (or cared about) the fact that he only had one arm ........ they were treating him just like any other pitcher who was coming upon hard times at the end of his career. And to me, THAT is an outstanding legacy. o
