Times staff writer David W. Myers catches up with former Dodgers and Angels

Rhoden overcame a serious bone disease as a child and made his major league debut with the Dodgers in 1974. An All-Star in 1976, his 16-10 record in ’77 and 10-8 mark in ’78 helped the club win back-to-back league championships. Traded to Pittsburgh at the start of the 1979 season for pitcher Jerry Reuss, he retired in 1989 with a 151-125 lifetime mark.

Winner of more than $100,000 in celebrity golf tournaments last year, Rhoden, 41, lives in Ormand Beach, Fla.
