Tony Boeckel

edit
  • ... that baseball player Tony Boeckel was overcome by heat during his major league debut and was struck in the head with a ball two days later?

5x expanded by EricEnfermero (talk). Self nominated at 05:55, 15 October 2014 (UTC).

  • Expansion, article length, and hook length all look good. The article is well-referenced for a DYK entry, with sufficient referencing provided for the hook fact. Spot-checks I performed on several cites revealed no issues. Any of the hooks should be good to go; my personal preference is for the original hook. Giants2008 (Talk) 02:34, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
