Jerry Dorgan

... that baseball player Jerry Dorgan suffered from an "unconquerable appetite for liquor" and died after being discovered intoxicated in a barn with an empty liquor bottle by his side?

5x expanded by Cbl62 (talk). Self nominated at 21:49, 6 July 2014 (UTC).

Five-fold expansion between July 2 and July 6 confirmed. Content is neutral and sufficiently cited in-line. Spot checking shows adequate paraphrasing. Hook is long, but comes in under 200 characters. The hook is supported by the Sporting Life article. It is exciting! QPQ is done. No image submitted for DYK. Good job. :) EvanRo (talk) 21:07, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

In reply to EvanRo's concern about length, I eliminated the word "professional" before "baseball player" which doesn't seem necessary to the hook. Cbl62 (talk) 22:05, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
