Fingers is it..That didn't take long... How about one you probably can't look up? Try this one..

Name the major leaguer who lost his mother in law to a heart attack at the ballpark the day he was pitching. His sorrows on and off the field were only beginning...

You wouldn't have to be a Cincinnati pitcher to pitch in Cincinnati. His mother in law was in the stands because he was a native of Ohio.

Thanks for narrowing it down,RMB:) :) :)

In one of his books, he mentions his father in law dying of a heart attack. He then adds that he lost his mother in law to a heart attack as well, at _____________ on the day he was scheduled to pitch there. He doesn't elaborate and say whether she died while he was on the mound or maybe she died before the game in the stands and he was scratched. So you know he wrote at least two books.

:clapping :clapping :clapping for RMB...

He stated in one of his books that his mother in law died in the Riverfront stands during one of the games he was pitching in. during the 82 season...And of course most of us have seen the clip of him breaking his arm throwing a pitch.
