  • Who is the best Pitcher of all time?

    Multiple answers can be accepted, but when it is asked who was the best left-handed Pitcher ever, the answer is most often Warren Spahn.

    Spahn played most of his career with the Boston/Milwaukee Braves, where he won the World Series and the Cy Young Award in 1957. A cerebral pitcher, Spahn employed a combination of delivery, technique, and outthinking batters, which led to a long career in which he set the still-standing record of 363 Wins by a southpaw.

    We are proud to nominate Warren Spahn for the United States Athletic Hall of Fame.
