Not MLB but a similar story from my high school days. I was a junior pitching varsity at Corvallis when I committed the ultimate sin and walked this hot shot freshman, Larry Reynolds* , on 4 pitches. This speedster takes a HUGE lead off first thinking he was stealing 2nd base. I took a look at the space between him and the bag and picked him off easily for the next out.
Larry went on to have a pretty good minor league career.

Pitch count? They didn't have no stinkin pitch count then.

That time that The Kid absolutely *yoked* a 104 MPH fastball for a game winning grand slam.
