Rube Marquard rings a bell too.

Yes, as detailed in "Glory of their Times", Rube Marquard had 19 consecutive wins to start the 1912 season.

What other pitcher had 19 consecutive wins in one season?

Great guess. McNally started 15-0 in 1969, but then his streak ended.

Great guess. Clemens won 20 straight wins, but it was over two different seasons, and in two different uniforms, beginning with the Blue Jays as he pitched his way to a second straight AL Cy Young Award and then continuing it after he was traded to the Yankees. Clemens needed a little luck along the way, escaping with a no-decision in seven different starts in which he allowed three earned runs or more -- including a seven-run implosion against the Orioles and a five-run start against the Rangers in early 1999. Still, Clemens went nearly an entire calendar year (June 3, 1998 - June 1, 1999) without suffering a loss.

Hint: The other player that won 19 consecutive games in a single season did it in the 19th century.
