Third, the Brewers chose Robin Yount, a high school shortstop. And with the fourth pick, the Padres chose Dave Winfield, an all-world college pitcher and outfielder and athlete at the University of Minnesota. I don’t have any idea how Winfield dropped to fourth in that draft, considering his extraordinary athletic talent. He was also drafted by the Atlanta Hawks in the NBA draft and by the Minnesota Vikings in the NFL draft. Fun fact: In the NFL draft, just like in MLB, Winfield was taken just a few picks after Stearns.
