American Hall of Famer and left-handed legend whose devastating slider, remarkable durability and 329 career wins across a career dominated by four Cy Young Awards established him as one of the finest pitchers in history.
Steve Carlton is one of baseball's greatest left-handers, a four-time Cy Young Award winner who spent most of his career with the Philadelphia Phillies. His devastating slider is considered one of the finest individual pitches in baseball history. Most remarkably, he won the 1972 NL Cy Young Award while pitching for a Phillies team that won only 59 games — posting 27 of their wins himself.
