Edward Anthony Barnowski is an American former professional baseball player. He was a right-handed pitcher who received two brief trials with the 1965?1966 Baltimore Orioles of Major League Baseball. Barnowski graduated from Mont Pleasant High School, Schenectady, New York, and pitched for Syracuse University before signing with the Orioles in 1963. He stood 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighed 195 pounds. The first four seasons of Barnowski's minor league baseball career were highly successful. At Oriole farm teams ranging from the Rookie classification to Triple-A, he won 48 games and lost 18, twice registered an earned run average below 2.00, and in 1965 struck out 207 batters in 177 innings pitched in the Double-A Eastern League. Baseball Digest wrote in his March 1965 scouting report: "Can throw real good fast ball and curve. Fields well. Hard worker. An A-1 prospect." Barnowski had his first MLB trial in September 1965; in 4? innings pitched over four games played, all in relief, he allowed only one earned run and struck out six. However, Barnowski issued seven bases on balls.
