Quiz on HOF control pitchers
Browsing through stats, I spotted some patterns i find interesting:
There are only three hof starting pitchers who hit fewer than twenty batters in their whole careers (18, 19 and 19). Yet collectively they pitched over 7800 innings, faced over 33000 batters, and walked over 3000. All were strikeout artists relative to their era leading their league nine times among them. They struck out over 5600 batters in their careers.
Can you name them without reference Help? (I wouldn't have been able to. )
