- Where did the name "Bump" come from? His name is actually Elliot Taylor Wills. Can someone shed some light on this?
- Bump's offense was down from his 1977 rookie season, but he did steal 52 bases. Wills was batting .229 on September 1 but had a hot month to raise his average to .250.
- 1978 Stats: .250, 9 HR, 57 RBI in 157 games.
