Beyond his excellent career statistics, Bouton was known for his unique pitching style that reflected his outgoing personality. He was reliably unpredictable, hitting batters with pitches and making bold moves to keep his opponents from guessing. This made him one of the most popular and controversial players of the time. Bouton was also known for his wit and cleverness, which lasted long after his baseball career was over.

Bouton wrote a memoir titled "Ball Four," that became a best-seller and an instant classic for baseball fans. The book revealed behind-the-scenes revelations and opinions about players, managers, and others connected to the game, which created quite a stir in baseball societies. Bouton received little support from his formerly adoring fans and was even rejected by the baseball community for many years following its publication in 1970. In retrospect, however, his book has become an essential historical document and has even contributed to the modern success of baseball as we know it. Read even more about Jim Bouton at Wikipedia
