Has been said he pitched in a hitter's ballpark (how true is that of Wrigley?) Also could be best control strikeout artist of all time. He is only MLB pitcher to throw more than 3,000 K's with less than 1,000 walks.

One of 4 in the 3000k club with less than 1k strikeouts. Greg Maddux, Curt Schilling and Pedro Martinez also did it. Of the 4, Fergie has the worst k/BB ratio at 3.20. Schilling has the best at 4.38, Pedro is next at 4.15 and Maddux is at 3.37. Clayton Kershaw is also very likely to join that group.
