My Take
"Black Jack" McDowell is the kind of ballplayer I have a soft spot for, a Stanford-educated pitcher who brought a bit of edge to the mound. Three All-Star selections and the 1993 American League Cy Young Award tell you he was, for a stretch, among the very best right-handers in the game. I like that his career wound through several franchises, the White Sox, Yankees, Indians and Angels, because it speaks to a guy who kept competing. The nickname suggests a certain attitude, and pitchers with that streak often age into great stories. I'd happily read more about his post-baseball turn toward music.
