Cy Young
The Baseball Life and Career
Buch
An early celebrity pitcher, Denton Cy Young (1867-1955) established supreme standards on the mound.

His talents helped establish the American League in 1901. Among the Hall of Fame's first inductees, he remained a sought-after interviewee decades after retirement. A year after his death, the Cy Young Award was dedicated as baseball's mos…
