  • Seattle Bill James goes from 26-7 to 5-4. . .
  • . . . and 300+ innings to a mere 68!
  • His arm is dead! It's sore! His shoulder's shot!
  • The man is only 23 years old!
  • Returns to home in California Mother Lode country!
  • Braves fall to 2nd (83-69) without him. . .

    • A healthy 22-year-old man dominates the league (26-7, 1.90 ERA) in 1914, and
    inexplicably loses it in 1915-- just like that!

    Never a quitter, he tried to stage a comeback
    on several occasions, but was unsuccessful
