Still Throwing Heat: Strikeouts, the Streets, and a Second

Chance

Sinopsis :

A flame-throwing star with the Houston Astros, J. R. Richard

was at the top of his profession when he inexplicably began

complaining of arm weakness in 1980. Initially scoffed at

because he continued approaching 100 mph on the radar gun,

everything changed when Richard collapsed while playing

catch with a teammate&#8212laer diagnosed as a lifethreatening

stroke. The shocking development ended

Richard&#8217smajor league career and set off a chain of

events that led to the former All-Star being homeless by the

mid-1990s. This rapid rise and sudden, tragic fall define the

unusual, moving, and inspirational life of a Houston icon who


has endured many hardships but has become an admired

figure in his adopted hometown. J. R. Richard tells that story

now in his own words, including the highs and the lows of his

brilliant athletic career, the difficulties that befell him on and off

the field, abandonment by those he counted on after his

stroke, the despair of losing everything, and his ultimate

redemption and giving back to the community.
