Steve Trout

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steven Russell Trout (born July 30, 1957, in Detroit, Michigan) was a major league baseball pitcher during the 1980s.

He was son of former major league pitcher Dizzy Trout. His nickname was the fairly obvious "Rainbow", but he displayed a little "dizziness" of his own from time to time, developing a reputation for his offbeat personality.

He was one of the strong starting pitchers on the storied Cubs team of 1984, which won their division title after suffering a 39-year post-season drought.
