Further with respect to WaJo's shutout accomplishments, 24 of his 110 shutouts (25 of his 111 shutouts, including World Series) came in 1920 thru 1927 (during the live-ball era) when WaJo's age was 32 to 39. Also, WaJo led the AL in shutouts seven times during his career, with his last time and only time during the live-ball era being 1924 (with 6 shutouts), the only year Washington won the World Series.
