Michael Stephen Lolich (born September 12, 1940) is an American former professional baseball player. He played in Major League Baseball as a left-handed pitcher from 1963 until 1979, almost entirely for the Detroit Tigers. A three-time All-Star, Lolich is most notable for his performance in the 1968 World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals when he earned three complete-game victories, including a win over Bob Gibson in the climactic Game 7. At the time of his retirement in 1979, Lolich held the Major League Baseball record for career strikeouts by a left-handed pitcher. More about Mickey Lolich

Lolich was born in Portland, Oregon of Croatian descent. He was born right-handed but, began to throw left-handed after a childhood accident. At age two, he rode his tricycle into a parked motorcycle, which fell on him. The accident broke his left collarbone, requiring him to wear a cast for four months. Post-injury efforts to strengthen the left arm helped Lolich develop into throwing left-handed. Known as an eccentric, a sports writer in 1964 wrote of Lolich: "He now eats, writes and bats right-handed, pitches left-handed and thinks sideways."The most expensive item with a signature of Mickey Lolich (Mickey Lolich Tigers Autographed Jersey Auto COA World Series Inscribed 68WS MVP) was sold in March 2022 for £175.09 while the cheapest item (MLB HOF TIGERS MICKEY LOLICH AUTOGRAPHED SIGNED 8x10 BASEBALL PHOTO COA JSA PSA) found a new owner for £0.68 in October 2015.
