He was the winner of 511 major league baseball games, nearly 100 more than any other pitcher, and was among the original 12 players inducted into baseball's Hall of Fame, but Cy Young remains a legendary but shadowy figure. This account of his life places him in the context of the time.
He was the winner of 511 major league baseball games, nearly a hundred more than any other pitcher. He threw three no-bitters, including the first perfect game in the new American League. He was among the original twelve players inducted into baseball''s Hall of Fame, and his name is now attached to the game''s most prestigious pitching award. Yet for all his accomplishments, Cy Young remains to many baseball fans a legendary but little-known figure.
