    No Candy or Lea, but yes to McWilliams. He was my guess for being the last one guessed. Guess I was wrong. Good going. 1. Steve Carlton 36 2. Rick Reuschel 25 3. Jerry Reuss 21 4.

I'll guess Maloney in here, too. He and Al Jackson engaged in some classic duels, with "Little Al" holding his own pretty well. Dave Guisti. Gary Nolan Bob Friend Later Who's El Presidente? No Guisti. No Nolan. No Friend. No Maloney either.

    That was my assumption, too. You mean they don't do it that way? They really should. Of course, the quality of the visiting teams can vary from year to year, too. But it should have much less of an impact.

    John Denny is the Phillie. And no, Gaylord Perry wasn't before my time. I wish I was that young. This guy we're looking for got all his wins as a member of the same team. He last pitched in 1971, but that was in the American League. HIs last win against the Mets was in 1969. 1 Greg Maddux 34 2 Steve Carlton 30 3 Bob Gibson 28 4 Juan Marichal 26 5 Phil Niekro 25 6 Don Drysdale 24 7 Mike Krukow 22 8 Larry Jackson 21 9 Burt Hooton 21 10 _____________ 19 11 Don Sutton 18 11 Jim Bunning 18 13 Sandy Koufax 17 13 Ferguson Jenkins 17 13 Rick Wise 17 16 Tom Glavine 16 16 Claude Osteen 16 16 Bob Knepper 16 16 John Denny 16
  15. Benjamin Grimm
    Nope. You misunderstood. The Phillie wasn't the guy from the 60's. The Phillie was active in the 80's.
  16. Benjamin Grimm
    That leaves the Phillie (he played for other teams, too) and the guy who was before my time, at least as a National Leaguer. (Remember, I signed on as a baseball fan in 1971.)

    No Smiley. No Drabek. No Rogers. No Reuss.

    Soto no.

One of the non-Phillies was before my time. For the fourth guy, my strongest memory of him is him pitching against the Phillies in Veterans Stadium.

    Oops to me, too. I didn't see the Willie and Eric Davis post. Sorry about that. Let's try wins by an opposing pitcher. And to slow it down, let's limit our guesses to three pitchers each, until you learn whether your guess is right or wrong. 1 ______________ 34 2 ______________ 30 3 ______________ 28 4 ______________ 26 5 ______________ 25 6 ______________ 24 7 ______________ 22 8 ______________ 21 9 ______________ 21 10 _____________ 19 11 _____________ 18 11 _____________ 18 13 _____________ 17 13 _____________ 17 13 _____________ 17 16 _____________ 16 16 _____________ 16 16 _____________ 16 16 _____________ 16
