We are talking about who was best, not feelings and emotions.
Facing a guy like Sam McDowell or Sandy Koufax or Walter Johnson or Nolan Ryan will obviously "feel" different than facing a knuckleball pitcher like Niekro, or a junkball pitcher with brains and control, like Tommy John.
But there are guys who had more success hitting heat rather than butterflies.
