Hal Reniff was a true reliever for the Yankees and Mets from 1961-1967. Let’s just say being a true reliever during that era wasn’t a high regard for a pitcher.He recorded a team-high 18 saves with a 2.62 ERA for the Yankees in 1963 and finished with a career record of 21-23. He played his final 29 games in 1967 with the Mets after struggling with the Yankees early in the season.
He pitched in the 1963 and 1964 World Series, allowing no runs over 3 1/3 innings, but the team lost to the Dodgers and Cardinals.
