The Steve Dalkowski Story

Fishpo31

My dad saw him pitch in Kennewick in the very early 60's. He didn't know about Dalkowski, just went to a game with a buddy. He told me that when they walked into the ballpark, a section of seats directly behind the plate was roped off, as if a large group was coming in. The backstop was chicken wire, not chain link or netting. The third or fourth pitch he threw went right through the chicken wire, shattering a seat. He was legendary, even though most people never heard of him...
