Thomas Martin Brennan (born October 30, 1952) is a former

Cleveland Indians, Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers. He was called “The Grey Flamingo” for his odd pitching delivery of pausing briefly on one leg before continuing with his pitch. Vin Scully delighted in highlighting the nickname and pitching style during a nationally broadcast baseball game on Saturday, April 7, 1984, in which Jack Morris
pitched a no-hitter.

Brennan played college baseball for Lewis University in Romeoville, Illinois, where he helped the Flyers win the 1974 NAIA World Series. He was additionally named the MVP of the tournament.

Brennan was inducted into the National College Baseball Hall of Fame in 2021.[1]
