looked it up
Who was the former Cub who was the pitcher for Detroit Tigers catcher Pudge Rodriguez in the 2005 Home Run derby?
I had to look it up. Just goes to show, the Cubs penchant for collecting bad middle infielders spans generations.
Kelleher vs. Kingman
You're correct! That was former Cub Mick Kelleher pitching to Pudge at the Home Run Derby.
Speaking of Mick, I think these are photos of his collision with Dave Kingman at second base.

FWIW, I used to own a Mick Kelleher bat. It was a slightly broken one.
However, I let some guys in my softball class in college use it and they broke it completely. Arrrgh!

Speaking of Pudge, he has at least one fan in Illinois.
