Ostermueller's best season came in 1936 when he went 11-11 with a 3.17 ERA for the Red Sox. However, Ostermueller is perhaps best known for his role in a controversial moment in baseball history. In the 1947 World Series, Ostermueller was pitching for the Dodgers when he hit Yankee legend Joe DiMaggio with a pitch. The incident sparked a brawl between the two teams, and many believe it was intentional on Ostermueller's part. However, Ostermueller always insisted that it was an accident.
After retiring from baseball in 1948, Ostermueller worked as a coach and scout for several teams, including the Baltimore Orioles and Houston Astros. In 1953, he was inducted into the Quincy Sports Hall of Fame. Fritz Ostermueller passed away in 1957 at the age of 50, leaving behind a legacy as a talented pitcher and a controversial figure in baseball history.
