Texas Rangers
Matlack went 15-13 with a 2.27 ERA (second to Ron Guidry) and earned his first career save his first season in Texas, however elbow surgery limited him to just thirteen starts in 1979. He rebounded to make 34 starts in 1980, one of which was on August 19, when he held George Brett, who was batting over .400, hitless, ending his thirty game hitting streak.
