For the 30-Day BASEBALL Coach4aday Challenge today I am writing about ALAN Fowlkes.

This might be the only post of the month where I write about someone who played in the MLB I know very well. Alan Fowlkes is a former NCAA National Champion and Major League baseball pitcher who lives in Lumberton NC.

Alan played two years for both the San Francisco Giants and California Angels in the mid 1980’s.

FAQ’s Alan Fowlkes

Alan is included in the NCAA Record books for what he accomplished at Cal-Pomona which at the time was NCAA Division II member. In 1980, Fowlkes set NCAA records with 206 innings pitched (he’s the only pitcher in any division to pitch more than 186 innings), 19 complete games, 24 starts and 21 wins.
