When I hit a batter, it was 90% intentional.

Is that why they call him "Beaner"?

1999 – going 23-4 with a league-best 2.07 ERA and 313 strikeouts, winning the pitching Triple Crown

Extraordinary marks, for the modern era

He certainly ruined the season for Yankee fans in 2004. I’m no Red Sox fan, but I was happy the Yankee’s lost in the ALCS that year.

As a Yankee fan I hated the guy, but anyone who can put up numbers like that — especially in the Steroid Era — is a phenomenal pitcher.

It looks like that “Vote for Pedro” thing paid off.

A "year for the ages"? Nope. Here is a year for the ages:

31 wins, 6 losses
1.96 ERA
48 Games Started, 28 Completed
336 IP
280 strikeouts (7.5/9)
63 walks (1.7/9)

Great pitcher that year, 1968, but a terrible human being and he will never be in the Hall of Fame.

Congrats to Pedro and the other HOF Class of 2015.
