Old Timer ... welcome to 2010 ... what pitcher was I?

[doc mercer]

I pitched for more than a decade in the Big Leagues

I was a right handed pitcher

I led my league in this category nearly a half dozen times

I had a careeer ERA under 2.80

I accomplished this feat a minimum of 30 times 4 consecutive seasons in a row

4 times I finished in the Top 3 balloting of the Highest award pitchers can receive

Familiar with All Star games as I got invited to 3 of them

I won a WS championship ring

I am in the HOF of the franchiese I gained my fame with

I was the Media favorite son as I could fire out quotes that would make Chris
Berman look tame

I have a connection with John Smoltz

Whne I retired my walks for 9 innings pitched was the lowest in 6 decades
