wasn't there some controversy about this guy? Themindset 3 July 2005 09:26 (UTC)

No, I don't think so. Maybe you're thinking of David Wells, who also pitched a perfect game for the Yankees in the late 90's? I know Wells is a controversial player, but I do not think that Cone is (was).

Yes, there was contorversy...an accused rape charge among other things I believe. -It wasn't an accused rape charge, it was something like public indecedency or public lewdness or whatever the charge is when you "flash" a lady in the stands during warm-ups before the game. It was early in his Mets career.

There is no discussion about his aneursym here. That was a major part of his career.

He had a pretty good batting average for a pitcher. I remember when he was with the Blue Jays they made sure to pitch him on "NL rules" days in the World Series because he could hit.

He pleaded no contest for statutory rape. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.203.29.69 (talk) 20:00, 29 January 2009 (UTC) 12.40.253.154 02:52, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
