As a 48-year-old player-coach on Billy Martin‘s 1970 Denver (American Association) team, Fowler saved 15 games and won 9, with a 1.59 ERA. He subsequently followed Martin as a pitching coach to several ML cities, including New York. Mostly a reliever during his playing days, Fowler won a career-high 12 games for the 1954 Reds. His brother, Jesse, pitched with the Cardinals 30 years before Art’s ML debut.
