Frank Pastore
Frank Pastore was a former Major League Baseball pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds.
After a career-ending injury, he became a Christian radio host and author.
Pastore grew up in a dysfunctional family with an atheist mother and distant father.
He excelled in baseball from a young age, signing with the Reds at 17.
His pitching career was cut short by a line drive that shattered his elbow.
This event led to a spiritual transformation, and Pastore became a prominent Christian speaker and radio personality.
He hosted one of the largest Christian radio shows in America before his untimely death in 2012 from a motorcycle accident.
