OK good buddy, I'll play your ERA game to name a few......

Rube Marquard = 3.08

Jack Chesbro = 2.68

Jack Coombs = 2.78

Jack Quinn = 3.29

Vic Willis = 2.63

Barney Pelty = 2.63


I think it's a little unfair to compare Pelty to guys like....Mordecai Brown....Joss....Matty....Plank....Waddell


Take care,
