Who is Oscar Zamora?

Oscar José Zamora Sosa is a former professional baseball player. A right-handed pitcher, he played all or part of four seasons in Major League Baseball, playing for the Chicago Cubs during 1974–76, and the Houston Astros in 1978.

In his career he had 13 wins against 14 losses, and an earned run average of 4.53. He seemed to give up a lot of hits, leading to Cubs fans making up this song, to the tune of Dean Martin's song hit "That's Amore":

When the pitch is so fat

That the ball meets the bat

That's Zamora
