Eighteen and twenty on the win-loss line — and a 1.27 E.R.A. that still reads like frost. Two hundred fifty-eight strikeouts. Seven shutouts. SkillScore still elite. The record said .474; the arm said lock. The cartoons vacuum the runs and leave the badge honest.

In 1910 his E.R.A. was 1.27 — cold on the glass even on a .474 ledger.
258 STRIKEOUTS

TOP DRAWER
In 1910 he was still top drawer — SkillScore kept the badge honest.
