Best Season Ever

The MLB Network continues to deliver great programming. One of my favorite regular programs is Prime 9 which counts down the top 9 in any given baseball category. The catch phrase is it does not end arguments it starts them. The episode I watched tonight dealt with the greatest pitching season ever. Third was Bob Gibson in 68, Second was Walter Johnson in 13. Number 1 was Pedro's 2000 season. That's the season when his ERA was 1.74 while the league ERA was 5.07. A few weeks ago I did a comparasion of Pedro and Randy Johnson in their primes and was reminded of just how dominant they both were. The research was eye opening and was reaffirmed by the program.
