Dolf Luque, 1925, Cincinnati. A small man with a mean disposition and a ball that moved like it had opinions. Sixteen wins, eighteen losses — the record of a fellow whose club forgot to bring the bats. But the E.R.A. sat at 2.63, which is stingy even for a banker. Two hundred ninety-one innings on that arm, twenty-two complete games, four shutouts. He didn't ask out. He just kept throwing.

22 COMPLETE GAMES
