Denton True Young began his professional baseball career in 1890 with the Cleveland Spiders of the National League. He would go on to pitch for St. Louis and Boston before returning to Cleveland and then Boston again. His Major League record of 511 Wins will never be broken but did you know that he also holds the record for the most ML losses at 315? He threw three No-hitters including a perfect game and led his league in Victories five times, ERA twice, Strikeouts twice as well as winning the pitching Triple Crown. Although he never won it himself, the Cy Young Award was named after him. I have 150 different Beckett recognized cards of Cy Young in my collection. Here's a look at nine of them.
