Don Cardwell, 1935-2008
2008-01-16 06:04
by Bob Timmermann
Don Cardwell, who pitched in 14 major league seasons, passed away Monday in Winston-Salem, NC at the age of 72. Cardwell had been suffering from Pick's Disease, a form of dementia.

Cardwell broke in with the Phillies in 1957. He was traded to the Cubs in 1960 and threw a no-hitter in his first start with them. After one year with the Pirates, Cardwell joined the Mets and pitched for the 1969 Miracle Mets in the World Series. Cardwell finished his career with Atlanta.

Two does not make a trend. Was there someone else recently besides Podres?
