Talk about a stud pitcher (ITP)

[EagleFan]

Sorry, usually don't post numbers from games but this was just too insane to pass up.

For some reason I decided to fire up an ITP career. I came across this pitcher (not my player, my player's numbers fall well short-- but they aren't bad) who had one hell of a hall of fame career. I'll work on posting the actual player page tommorrow.

He had 8 consecutive 20+ win seasons and a stretch of 10 out of 11 seasons with at least 19 wins. 4 of those seasons he had an ERA under 2.00. His best season was 29-2 with a 1.80 ERA.

Went over 300 IP 6 times in a 9 season span.

In his 8 year 20+ win seasons he had the following CG totals: 17, 19, 16, 18, 24, 21, 18 and 19.

In those 8 seasons his shutout totals were: 7, 9, 5, 7, 9, 6, 7 and 8.

Named to all-star team 8 times.

4 time pitcher of the week.
15 time pitcher of the month.
7 Cy Young awards.
4 World championships.
1 no hitter.

Led the league in ERA 8 times in a 9 season span, including 7 straight (2nd the time he didn;t lead, and the season before that stretch).

Led the league in lowest base runners per inning 6 times.

Led the league in wins 6 times.

Led the league in innings pitched 7 times.

Led the league in complete games 8 times.

Led theleague in shutuots 8 times.



He didn't slack off in the post season either as his career numbers were:
Games: 29
Starts: 29
Record: 18-8
ERA: 2.15
IP: 225.2
H: 170
BB: 43
K: 117
CG: 16
Sho: 7

One out of every 4 of his post season starts were shutouts, that's insane.


Oh, and a Hall of Fame selection.

I wonder how many fights he won with Steve Kuffrey.

What is ITP?

[Coder]

I was disappointed in the game ITP (Inside the Park, i.e. you take the role of a young draftchoice in an OOTP-universe and play your way up), but the game has produced one of the most excellent (Bill & Ted) dynasties I've ever read on any of the boards I frequent.
