Big John Pregenzer fans rally and trade tales
San Francisco Giants pitcher John Pregenzer sparked a craze when fans formed the Pregenter Fan Club after learning of his cheap purchase from Pocatello for 100 dollars. Feeney refused to sell him, but the club grew with members like Pierre Salinger and Pete Rozelle. Pregenzer later pitched in Tacoma and posted a 6-2 season record after 62 games. He returns to San Francisco in hopes of rejoining the Giants.
