In 1910 the Athletics had themselves a right-hander who gave Connie Mack's club everything and asked nothing back — Chief Bender, 23 wins against 5 defeats, an E.R.A. of 1.58 across 250 innings of honest work. He finished what he started, 25 times complete, three of them shutouts, and struck out 155. The man was mean and stingy both, and Philadelphia rode that arm all summer.
1.58 E.R.A.

25 COMPLETE GAMES
In 1910 he completed 25 games — finished tickets stacked on Mack’s desk.
