I suspect Grandy had a severe leg injury in 1980 and lost his wheels.

Was able to find two photos of Grandy. Neither of them is a stellar shot. The first I think shows him in an Essex Community College uniform making a fielding play. It's from the Baltimore Evening Sun of January 10, 1974. The second shows him in a Midland, TX, uniform. It's from the Midland Reporter-Telegram of May 9, 1978.
