	Dan Quisenberry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Born in Santa Monica, California, Quisenberry signed with the Royals as an amateur free agent in 1975, and was considered a marginal prospect.
		In December 1997, Quisenberry was diagnosed with brain cancer.
		Quisenberry's 45 saves in 1983 remains a team record, although his total was matched in 1993 by Jeff Montgomery.

		The experiment proved successful, and from 1980 to 1985, Quisenberry was the dominant relief pitcher in the American League, winning the Rolaids Relief Man Award in all but the strike-shortened 1981 season and finishing in the top five in voting for the Cy Young Award, again in all but 1981.
		His 45 saves in 1983 was briefly a record, and Quisenberry was the first pitcher in major league history to save more than 40 games in a season twice in his career.
		Quisenberry's 45 saves in 1983 is still a team record, but Quisenberry also holds the record for fewest saves in a year while still leading the team in that category.
