Reminds me of Rex Barney, a hard-thrower who came up in the Dodgers organization in the late 40s. It was said he pitched like the plate was high and outside. Happier ending though.... he was later the PA man at the old Memorial Stadium in Baltimore.

Spent many a happy summer day in the 70’s as a teenager at Memorial Stadium. Rex was the best.
