Former pitcher Stan Williams dies at 84
Former major league pitcher and pitching coach Stan Williams died Saturday at his home in Laughlin, Nev. He was 84.
Williams had been in hospice care since Feb. 11 due to cardiopulmonary illness, the Los Angeles Dodgers said in a statement Sunday.
Williams pitched for six different teams in a 14-year career, appearing in two World Series and two All-Star games, establishing a career record of 109-94 with a 3.48 ERA in 482 games.
At 6-foot-5, he was an intimidating presence on the mound and was known as the "Big Hurt" because of his penchant for pitching inside.
