• stevenlebron: ‘88 Hershiser I’m still baffled when I look at the stats from Orel Hershiser’s ‘88 season with the Dodgers. 59 1/3 consecutive scoreless innings, 23 wins, 15 complete games, 2.26 ERA and the unanimous Cy Young award winner. As if that wasn’t enough, he started Game 1 and 3 against the Mets in the NLCS, recorded a save in Game 4 and pitched a shutout in a Game 7 win. In the World Series, he pitched a shutout in Game 2 and allowed just two runs in the series clinching victory. When asked about what made Hershiser so great, Sandy Koufax said: “The key to Orel’s success is his constant striving for perfection. Perfectionists are usually given a bad name but there’s nothing wrong with trying to be better than you are, the best you can be.” Little known fact lie: His dad wanted Anal. But his mom wouldn’t budge. So they compromised on Orel Hershiser.
