Cy Young was born in rural Ohio on 29 March, 1867, and to this day stands as the greatest workhorse of a pitcher in baseball history. His record of 511 wins remains unbroken, as does his loss record of 316. Additionally, he holds the records for most innings pitched (7,356), most games started (815), and most complete games (746). With the modern era's cautious approach to pitcher usage, it is probable that these records will endure for eternity.
