Foot-O-Pedics Co-Owner, Larry
Gowell
Part of Yankee's Baseball History
 The
photograph is a picture of Larry Gowell, Co-Owner of Foot-O-Pedics,
pitching at Yankee Stadium in the last game of the year on October 4,
1972. He signed a professional contract with the Yankees in 1967 after
winning every game at Edward Little high school in Auburn, Maine. He
went on to pitch in the minor leagues for 6 years before he got his
chance to play in the big leagues at the end of 1972, after winning 11
games in a row in double A.
This game turned out to be a historical event in baseball as Larry got a
double his only time at bat. It turned out that the hit was the last hit
by a pitcher in the American League before the Designated Hitter rule
came into play in 1972. This picture is Larry throwing off the
mound at Yankee Stadium to the first hitter he faced that night against
the Milwaukee Brewers. His hit came off Jim Lonborg, which was a 3 balls
2 strike count, hitting a fastball down the line for a double. The
baseball was accepted as a historical baseball by the Hall Of Fame,
in Cooperstown, NY, where it now resides.
Larry is now pitching arch supports for Foot-O-Pedics. He has seen
many lives including his own changed for the better. He feels the
Perfect Foot Corrector is the best support system available to the
general public with a history of an extremely high success rate.
Larry shares "I have found a product that has not only given me a
better quality of life, but I have found a deeply rewarding and
fulfilling career that has greatly impacted others lives as well."
