And his best WAR year (1997 - 11.9) was better than Pedro's (2000 - 11.7). And, finally, Clemens averaged 205 IP for 24 years, while Pedro averaged 165 for 17.
Pedro in 2000, when he led the league with a 1.74 ERA and Clemens was second at 3.70 is the most dominating single season I have ever seen from a starter.
