- <p> HOSPITALIZED. Dave Dravecky, 35, former San Francisco Giants
- pitcher; for amputation of his left arm and shoulder to
- eradicate cancer; in New York City. Operated on in 1988,
- Dravecky won national sympathy in 1989 by defeating his doctors'
- predictions that he would never pitch again and hurling a
- victory against the Cincinnati Reds. But five days later, his
- pitching arm snapped and he collapsed on the mound during a game
- in Montreal.
