• Bob Gibson had so much substance, it became his style

  05-10-2020 23:12
  
  Bob Gibson, 84, died last Friday, exactly 52 years after he struck out 17 Detroit Tigers in a World Series game.
  Also on Friday, San Diego used nine pitchers to win a nine-inning game, 4-0.
  No great player would feel less at ease with 2020 baseball than Gibson, or would do more to disrupt its comfort. He played the game as nobody plays it today. But you could say the same thing about yesterday.
  He pitched nine World Series games and won seven, and averaged nine innings. In 1968 his final 24 game
