Despite pitching just two seasons in the major leagues, Fine was a professional baseball pitcher for 15 years (1939–1942; 1946–1956). He is most remembered for his career in Cuban baseball during five seasons, and especially for being the first (and until 2024, the only) pitcher to hurl a no-hitter game in Caribbean Series history.
