Is "EMU" a reference to this players school?

WE HAVE A WINNAR!   7 points (and the early lead) to JB5!

Here are the rest of the clues and the explanations behind them...

1.   Six (played for six MLB teams)
2.   EMU (Eastern Michigan University alum)
3.   5^th (5^th overall pick in the 1976 draft)
4.   5.40 (his career postseason ERA)
5.   Billy (his only postseason appearance came for the “BillyBall” A’s of 1981, managed by Billy Martin)
6.   New Year’s (DOB 1/1/55)
7.   Lefty (Lefthanded)
8.   Just 19 (only appeared in 19 minor league games before sticking in MLB for good)
9.   Blyleven ([Dec 9,1980] - Traded by Indians with Rafael Vasquez, Victor Cruz and Gary Alexander to Pirates for Manny Sanguillen and Bert Blyleven. )
10. 76-86 (played from 1976-1986)

Stay tuned, another game coming up today - gotta catch up on my two weeks of slacking.

Hey DFG - wherever the Owchster is today, I'm sure he'd be flattered to have his name mentioned in the same thread as Christy Mathewson. LOL

I only guessed Matthewson because he was "Big Six" and he was one of the original five into the HoF. Didn't know where the "EMU" fit in for him, though. Eh, I took a shot.
