What a colorful character. He was a huge star but flamed out quickly. Had all sorts of crazy mannerisms and I believe he was on the cover of SI with Big Bird from Sesame Street (or maybe he appeared on Sesame Street). Given my tender years at the time, that part was pretty impressive.
SI did a cool piece on Fidrych a few years back. Very interesting, down to earth guy. And pre-injury, Lord, could he pitch.
