After signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball (MLB) as a free agent in 1995, Eric Gagne began his career as a starting pitcher. After he struggled in that role, the Dodgers converted Gagne from a starter to a reliever, where for three years (2002–2004) he was statistically the most outstanding closer in the game, winning the Cy Young Award in 2003. During that period, he set a major league record by converting 84 consecutive save opportunities. Eric Gagne has hand signed this Los Angeles Dodgers 8x10 Photo.
