Johnny Grodzicki
Perhaps the saddest stories [of WWII ballplayers] are those involving highly touted youngsters whose careers were derailed. Consider the Cardinals’ Johnny Grodzicki. A 24-year-old pitcher of promise, he appeared in five games (winning two, losing one) with a 1.38 ERA in 1941. While serving as a paratrooper he injured his leg and was never the same on the mound. He returned for three games in 1946, but after 18 appearances in 1947, his big league career was over, though he continued as a minor leaguer through 1952. - Hardball Times, March 19, 2020
Redid the facegen. Looks like a mere coloring problem but when you load the facegen, it's in worse shape than it appears.
