Mauch never learned, either.

"For example, [in 1964] Mauch rushed pitchers Jim Bunning and Chris Short on two days' rest, wearing them down as they reached the stretch drive.

It happened again in 1982, when he guided the Angels to the AL Championship Series against Milwaukee. He rushed Tommy John on three days' rest after the Angels built a 2-1 series lead in a best-of-five series. The Angels lost the next two games and the series."
