During his 12-year career, he won 59 games, lost 67 games and netted five saves. He also played for the San Diego Padres, Kansas City Royals, and the Chicago White Sox.

Hammaker in San Francisco gave up a 3-run homer to José Oquendo, in Game 7 of the 1987 NLCS, which the Cardinals won 6-0 to advance to the World Series. Oquendo was a utility infielder who had hit only one homer that season, and only 14 in his career.
