Schultz was in his second MLB season in 1976 when he appeared in 29 games, throwing 23.2 innings and posting a record of 1-1 with an earned run average at 6.08.
Over the Winter he’d be traded to the Cardinals for Minor Leaguer Mike Overt, and he’d play for St. Louis the final three years of his career, going a combined 12-8 over that time with an ERA around 3.00, appearing in 133 games with three of them starts.
Injuries would derail his career, causing him to retire after the 1982 season while in the Minors, causing him to finish his Major League tenure with a very nice 15-9 record over 168 appearances, sporting an ERA at 3.68 over 240 innings, striking out 193 batters while collecting 12 saves.
Very good numbers!
