John Hiller
John Hiller in 1976
- ... that after suffering a heart attack at age 27, relief pitcher John Hiller (pictured) made a comeback and broke Major League Baseball's record for saves in a season? Source: The DYK fact is full supported by this (Reporting on another pitcher later breaking Hiller's record and noting: "When Hiller saved 38 games for the Tigers in 1973, he figured it was a record that wouldn't stand. . . . Hiller's feat was especially gratifying. In January 1971, at age 27, Hiller had suffered a heart attack.")
- ALT1:... that relief pitcher John Hiller (pictured) came back from a heart attack to break Major League Baseball's record for saves in a season? ? Source: same as main hook

- Length, hook, source, and date of GA confirmation all check out. Everything appears within Wikipedia policy, and the hook is interesting and properly sourced (I'd go with the first hook rather than the alt).
Good to go!Edit: Storye book correctly pointed out that I missed the fact that the nominator has not yet reviewed another DYK. That is the last thing that needs to be done, as far as I can tell, and once it is this will be ready to go. — Hunter Kahn 11:37, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
