During his career, he became a member of both the 300 wins club (314) and the 3,000 strikeouts club (3,534). The five-time 20-game winner went on to pitch in five All Star Games and posted a lifetime ERA of&#160;3.10. On September 17, 1968, Perry no-hit the Cardinals and starter&#160;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/player_search.cgi?results=gibsobo01,gibsobo02&amp;utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-www.blogger.com\" target=\"_blank\">Bob Gibson<\/a><\/strong>, one of the five 1-0 games that Hoot lost during his career.

He became the first pitcher to win the award in both Leagues. Sadly, despite all this greatness, he never won a World Series, but was inducted into the Hall in 1991.<\/div>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-frL0NQNaF5A\/UjS4vyZAokI\/AAAAAAAABoc\/JjJNSY60GMs\/s1600\/GAYLORD.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"border: 0px\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-frL0NQNaF5A\/UjS4vyZAokI\/AAAAAAAABoc\/JjJNSY60GMs\/s200\/GAYLORD.jpg\" width=\"160\" height=\"200\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Like I said before, tomorrow is Perry&#8217;s birthday.
