Palmer was the winning pitcher in 186 games in the 1970s, the most wins
in that decade by any MLB pitcher. He also won at least twenty games in
each of eight seasons and received three Cy Young Awards and four Gold
Gloves during the decade. His 268 career victories are currently an
Orioles record. A six-time American League All-Star, he was also one of
the rare pitchers who never allowed a grand slam in any major league
contest. Palmer appeared in the postseason eight times and was a vital
member of three World Series Champions, six AL pennant winners and seven
Eastern Division titleholders. He is the only pitcher in the history of
the Fall Classic with a win in each of three decades. He was also the
youngest to pitch a shutout in a World Series at age 20 in 1966. He was
one of the starters on the last rotation to feature four 20-game winners
in a single season in 1971. Palmer was inducted into the baseball Hall
of Fame in 1990.
