Jack Hurley, a three-time all-city pitcher, threw three high school no-hitters and struck out 46 batters in one three-game city playoff run, and was captain of Port Richmond’s PSAL borough basketball champions.
Drafted four times in high school and the University of Michigan before signing as a first-round pick of the Minnesota Twins, Hurley won his first nine minor-league starts in 1970 before suffering a rotator cuff injury, and was out of the game a year later, despite an 11-5 record and a 2.42 earned-run average.
