Description
Steve Lyons was selected in the first round of the 1981 baseball draft by the Boston Red Sox after completing a successful three-year career as a shortstop with the Beavers. During his nine-year major league career he played for Boston, the Chicago White Sox, the Atlanta Braves, and the Montreal Expos. Nicknamed "Psycho," Lyons is perhaps best remembered as the player who in 1990 dropped his pants to brush the dirt out after sliding headlong into first base.
