 Facing top reliever Steve Bedrosian with one out, Willard would loft a high fly out to Right Fielder Shane Mack, which proved to be deep enough to score Lemke with the winning run that won the game for the Braves.Willard's catching career came to an abrupt end on May 10, 1994, when, as a member of the Seattle Mariners versus the Chicago White Sox, a foul tip off the bat of Julio Franco struck his right shoulder, causing a fracture and damaged cartilage.Unable to complete a throw, he spent the rest of the season between the DL, the minors, and pinch hitting.
