Over the course of his short time in the majors, Fowler recorded a total of 5 strikeouts, showcasing his ability to miss bats but also indicating the challenges he faced on the mound.

Although his career did not extend beyond that single season, Jesse Fowler remains a part of baseball history, representing the many players who contributed to the sport during its formative years.
