It may have even been 40-122 in 1962. Regardless, they were awful. Gil Hodges, Charlie Neal, Marv Throneberry, Frank Thomas, Jim Hickman, Roger Craig, Choo Choo Coleman, Tim Harkness, Carlton Willey, Al Jackson, Galen Cisco, Jay Hook, Rod Kanehl, Elio Chacon, Felix Mantilla. The list goes on and on...

It was an even 160 games for them that year... I believe that two of the games were rained out and never made up; out of insignificance or mercy, I'm not sure which - LOL, though back then, they didn't squeeze every last $ out of games (as in day-night doubleheaders nowadays).
