While talking of Hot Doug's Spiegel said 3 new sausages at Wrigley.. Champ Summers, a Bill Bonham, and a Pete LaCock (by cracky) Fat ass said who is Bill Bonham...Jesus Christ this is all you have ever done is sports! It is like saying who is John Wall....another one! Who is doing Stocks and Jocks......ooops wrong fading star. Get your shit together

Adequate RHP for the Cubs with greasy long hair. I thought he never reached his potential. Champ Summers was a former paratrooper who never quite made it at the ML level. Pete Lacock is the son of former Hollywood squares host,Peter Marshall. A weak hitting 1st base prospect for the Coob.

Yeah, not that the guy was legendary .....but gotta at the very least assume he played...Spiegs didnt grow up here, he might not know every Steve Renko, but still should have some clue on this one...I believe he pitched with Stoney!

Though he is probably best known for giving up the lead-off moonshot to Bo Jackson in the All-Star game (and then followed by a Wade Boggs HR).

Also Reuschel could hit. And IIRC, could also move pretty well on the bases.

Yeah, I recall him being used as a pinch runner on occasion.

Also, Spiegel should be ashamed. Bonham is the highest profile of those three guys.

Wasn't there an intern or producer in the Score early days that they used to make fun of for calling him "Mr. Bone-ham" or something like that?

The man was a 20 game loser, for God's sake! It's not like he's some obscure player. It's another Zoilo Versalles.
