Player Biography
Gaylord Perry won 314 games, struck out 3,534 batters, earned Cy Young awards in both leagues, and hurled a no-hitter during his 22-year major league career with eight teams. But the spitball – or more accurately, the threat of one – gave Perry his everlasting fame. The author of “Me and the Spitter” could distract and frustrate through an array of rituals on the mound, including fidgeting with his glove, uniform and the bill of his cap. When Perry retired in 1983, he proclaimed, “The league will be a little drier now, folks.”
