No.

The 1952 Bernard Malamud novel "The Natural" is the basis for the 1984 film starring Robert Redford. It is highly fictionalized, but may be partly based on the true story of Eddie Waitkus (1919-1972) who was shot by an obsessed female fan in 1949. A similar incident occurred to ballplayer Billy Jurges (1908-1997) who was shot by a girlfriend in 1932, a year into his Baseball career, and came back to star on the Chicago Cubs team.
