While #BigD is famous for his then record 58 2/3 consecutive scoreless inning streak in ‘68, Bob Gibson concluded a streak of 47 just 18 days later (4th longest at the time) & Luis Tiant hurled 41 straight scoreless innings a month earlier! #YearofthePitcher 🔥
In 1968 - the #YearofthePitcher - it was quite fitting that the All⭐️Game final score was 1-0 (NL winning). But you might be surprised to learn that neither Bob Gibson nor Denny McLain got the start. Those honors went to these two stud hurlers. #Dodgers #Indians
We all know #TheMick was a shell of his former self at the plate when he retired in March ‘69. But do you realize in his final yr he finished 13th in AL HRs, 25th in RBIs & 2nd in BBs, posting a 143 OPS+? A shell of an icon, but still an above avg MLB hitter. #YearofthePitcher
Got this 1969 Topps #ALBattingLeaders card to memorialize several things:
(1) Yaz won 👑 w/ .301 BA.
(2) NO ONE else in AL hit above .290!
(3) Paul Blair made the AL Top 50 scoreboard w/ a .211 BA.

It doesn't matter what level of the minors we tune into on a nightly basis, it's been easy to find impressive pitching. Who is standing out? We discuss

On 9/17/68, this #Giants hurler beat Bob Gibson 1-0 by no-hitting #StLouis. The next day, this #Cardinals pitcher returned the favor by no-hitting SF for a 2-0 win. It’s the only time no-nos were thrown in back-to-back games. #YearofthePitcher
#YearOfThePitcher calling it right meow Kyle.
Another outstanding performance from Stuttgart ace

From 1968 (the #YearofthePitcher) thru 1970, this #Giants HOF slugger avg’d .300 BA, 40 HRs, 119 RBIs, 110 BBs, .603 SLG & 1.028 OPS.🔥 Led MLB in OPS+ all 3 yrs (174, 209, 182) w/ 188 3-yr avg shows you how he distanced himself from his peers. #Stretch #MobileAL
Check out the ERAs of ‘68. Gibson w/ his video game 1.12 (lowest ever in live ball era) followed by Tiant at 1.60 (lowest AL ERA of live ball era), #SuddenSam, McNally, McLain, @TommyJohn288 & Bolin ALL under 2.00!🔥 #YearofthePitcher
There were 339 shutouts thrown in 1968. #yearofthepitcher
Nats v. Phillies a great fun game of pitchers forgetting how to do their job today! #YearOfThePitcher
6 no hitters and it’s not even June. This is NUTS 🔥🔥🔥
#yearofthepitcher
Wade Miley started throwing no-hitters and now the #YearofthePitcher is officially sketchy.

O's fans are like, "Wade Miley did what now?!" Congrats to Miley. Gotta love a no-no. #YearofthePitcher
The MLB as a whole is hitting .232/.311/.390 on the year. This could be the year of the no hitters if this holds up.
No-hitter - Carlos Rodón
No-hitter - Joe Musgrove
30 Ks, 0 BB - Corbin Burnes
Not to mention 10K+ games already from deGrom, Cole, Bauer, Giolito, Bieber, Lynn, Glasnow, and more. We’re barely two weeks into the season.
It’s the #YearofthePitcher
