Description
An early celebrity pitcher, Denton "Cy" Young (1867–1955) established supreme standards on the mound.
A small-town Ohio farmer made good, he set Major League pitching records in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that will likely last forever.
The winner of 511 games - nearly one hundred more than the second-ranked hurler - Young pitched the first perfect game of the modern era, as well as three no-hitters.
His talents helped establish the American League in 1901.
Among the Hall of Fame's first inductees, he remained a sought-after interviewee decades after retirement.
A year after his death, the Cy Young Award was dedicated as baseball's most prestigious honor for pitchers.
