Parson Tom said...: I believe he started the '67or '68 season 5-0. By my 4th grade reckoning, that translated to a season record of something along the lines of 30-0. 20 wins guaranteed. And with Stottlemyre doing his thing and Dooley Womack in the bullpen, we were going to have some fun.

Well, that didn't quite work out, but the the season was more fun because of Monbo's fast start.; January 27, 2015 at 8:22 PM
