1956 was Jim Davis' third and final season with the Cubs. He started 11 of the 46 games that he appeared in and ended the season with a won-loss record of 5-7. On May 27 he tied a National League record by striking out four Cardinals during the sixth inning of the game. At the end of the year he was traded to the Cardinals as part of an eight player deal. He only pitched for the Cardinals for a couple of months, was released and signed by the New York Giants, finished the season with them and did not pitch in the major leagues again.
