MLBbro.com content editor Mark Gray takes us “Black In The Days” to celebrate the greatest Black pitcher in MLB history. A Top 10 all-time mound marauder, who had his best games in the biggest World Series moments against powerhouse teams.
Bob Gibson was so great that baseball lowered the mound after his 1968 season, where he gave up just 1.12 earned runs a game and hurled 13 complete game shutouts. The Black Ace was even better in clutch playoff moments, often pitching complete games and carrying his offensively-challenged team to victory.
