TRIVIA: Name This Baseball Player
I think there are a few fans of baseball around, maybe...

This Hall of Fame lefthander played for 3 teams in his career.

One year he led the league with a 1.75 ERA and a league leading 9 shutouts, winning 23 games. The next year he recorded a 2.01 ERA, 6 shutouts, winning 24 games.

He pitched in 2 different World Series, going 3-0, with 2 complete games. He set a World Series record of 29 1/3 scoreless innings that stood for 43 years.

Not bad with the bat, he hit 9 HRs in his first 4 seasons in the majors.

He compiled a career 94-46 Won-Loss record, with a career 2.28 ERA.

He finished his career with the Braves, retiring as they suffered through their worst season in franchise history.

Can you name this player?
