'''Mike Krukow''' possesses one of the nastiest drop pitches in all of [[RBI Baseball]]. With a solid curve and endurance rating, many [[curve|anything goes]] players find him very useful. Much like his entire [[San Francisco]] team, Krukow is nothing spectacular but can get the job done when in the right hands.

Mike Krukow was an All-Star pitcher for the Giants, Cubs, and Phillies. He currently is a broadcaster for the Giants. His insights and the great baseball stories he tells during his broadcasts and his great sense of humor make listening to "Kruk" a joy.
