Bob Gibson Never Gave in. He Didn't Have to

Posted Oct 10, 2020
But when I think of the massively full life and career of Bob Gibson, I think first of 1968. It is not the 1.12 ERA that best defines him, nor the 17 strikeouts in World Series Game 1 against a Detroit Tigers team that never saw anything like him. It is this: Bob Gibson threw 331 2/3 innings that year and never was removed from the mound in the middle of any of them. (Sports Illustrated)
