What's so crazy about that?

Here is an Aggie one. In 1917 and 1917 A&M did not give up and single point.

Korin got the joke. He's no dummy. In fact, he is one fo the smarter posters on the board.
Which makes his being a Florida fan even more perplexing.

Sorry, but in my eyes no sports stat ever comes close to what Pete Maravich accomplished. 44.2 point career scoring average while playing at LSU, all whilst never having the benefit of a 3 point line during his time. The most prolific of scorers in today's game can't even come within averaging 10 points of that. Truly incredible.
I agree, and if you consider that the defender is called for a foul much more quickly these days, that record is even more impressive. He had to EARN those points, 2 at a time, the hard way.

quote:Don't know about the other two times, but the K against Smoltz was a called 3rd strike.
In 323 at bats against Tom Glavine, John Smoltz, Pedro Martinez and Greg Maddux, Tony Gwynn struck out a total of 3 times.
Just curious on the Maddux stat, how many batters did he face that season?

Mine has to do with Maddux as well...
---Tony Gwynn racked up 39 hits off Maddux (39-for-94, .415), 32 against Smoltz (32-for-72, .444) and 30 against Tom Glavine (30-for-99, .303).
---In 139 plate appearances against Pedro Martinez and Greg Maddux, he never struck out. Not even once.

I have two.
1972 Steve Carlton won 27 games for the Phillies. That team only won 59 games the whole season.
My Favorite. I believe it was 2004. May 1 I am in my care listening to ESPN. Tim Kurkjian is on and says that Barry Bonds has more homeruns than swinging strikes for the month of April. Let that sink in.
SEC related. I am sure somebody from the SEC played for the Phillies or Giants that year.

Joe Sewell played his entire 14 year HofF career with the same bat.
Cy Young's 511 wins is beyond incredible.

Bob Gibson in 1968: 22-9 with a 1.12 ERA & 13 shutouts. How in the hell do you lose 9 times with a 1.12ERA ???

It's interesting that almost all of these stats are baseball related.

Another Tony Gwynn stat that completely blows my mind:
Tony Gwynn had 9288 career at bats (10232 plate appearances) and struck out 434 times
4.67%
He also had 543 doubles.
