December 12, 200817 yr NO CHEATING Among pitchers with 2,000 innings pitcher, only nice pitchers have a K/9IP (Strikeouts per 9 Innings Pitched) above 8.00. Who are these nine pitchers? HINT: Five of them are either active or have played in the last 3 years. That rules out a lot of pitchers. :lol:
December 12, 200817 yr Randy Johnson Pedro Martinez Nolan Ryan John Smoltz Roger Clemens Sandy Kohfax Curt Schilling Bob Gibson Steve Carlton That'll be my guesses
December 12, 200817 yr Author Randy Johnson Roger Clemens Nolan Ryan Curt Schilling Bob Gibson Pedro Martinez John Smoltz Sandy Koufax Can't think of #9.... Randy Johnson Pedro Martinez Nolan Ryan John Smoltz Roger Clemens Sandy Kohfax Curt Schilling Bob Gibson Steve Carlton That'll be my guesses Nice work, but you guys are missing the three "difficult" ones. FWIW, I will post the K/9IP of those you guessed incorrectly: John Smoltz- 7.98 Bob Gibson- 7.22 Steve Carlton- 7.13 That rules out a lot of pitchers. :lol: Darn it. :lol:
December 12, 200817 yr Author I just looked it up....I got 7 right. The other 2, I would have never got. I have you with 6 right.....PM me.
December 12, 200817 yr I just looked it up....I got 7 right. The other 2, I would have never got. Would either one of them be Walter "Big Train" Johnson or Cy Young?
December 12, 200817 yr Would either one of them be Walter "Big Train" Johnson or Cy Young? Now that I think of it probaby not because they both probably pitched way too many innings back in the days when they had tons of complete games.
December 12, 200817 yr Author Would either one of them be Walter "Big Train" Johnson or Cy Young? No, but FWIW MLB.com does not have there K/9IP listed. However, I did the calculations and here is what I came up with: Cy Young at 3.43 Walter Johnson 5.338
December 12, 200817 yr Author Is Gaylord Perry or Louis Tiant in there Nope. Gaylord Perry-5.94 Louis Tiant- 6.24
