	Tommy Byrne (baseball) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tommy Byrne, born Thomas Joseph Byrne ( December 31, 1919 in Baltimore, Maryland), is a former Major League Baseball starting pitcher who played for the New York Yankees (1943, 1946-51, 1954-57), St.
		Byrne was a hard-thrower pitcher who never hesitated to pitch inside, but he had really struggled with his control most of his career.
		In a 13-year career, Byrne compiled a 85-69 record with a 4.11 ERA in 1362 innings, and had a disappointing 0.74 strikeout-to-walk ratio (766-to-1037).

		Byrne allows two hits in seven innings and drives in all the runs before retiring with back spasms.
		Brownie Byrne walks 16 Sox batters, tying the American League walk record set by Bruno Haas in 1915 (Haas walked 16 in a loss to the Yanks, his only ML decision), and Boston strands 22 runners: the AL record for stranded runners is 24, set by the Indians in 18 innings on July 10, 1932.
		Byrne breaks his personal record of 13 walks in a game he set in 1949.

		Tommy Byrne not only had the best RA on the list, but also lapped the field in innings pitched: He's the only pitcher in major league history to walk a batter an inning for more than 100 innings in a season.
		The 1951 season was par for the course for Byrne, who went 85-69 in his career (pitching mostly for Casey Stengel 's Yankees) despite walking 1,037 batters in 1,369 innings.
		It's safe to say that Byrne was the most wildly effective (or is it effectively wild?) pitcher in major league history.

		Most baseball people agree with McCarver, with the reasons ranging from the force of the Earth's movement in the Northern Hemisphere to deliveries.
		Tommy Byrne, a left-hander, is the career leader for walks-per-nine-innings at 6.9.
		For baseball, that means a lefthander should be better than a right-hander for determining where a pitch should go and how the body should function in the delivery.

		Reynolds managed to retire the order in the ninth on a grounder, popup and fly ball, but Newcombe was not as lucky as the Yankees' Tommy Henrich put one over the right field stands for the win.
		New York's Joe Page, having pitched 4 2/3 innings of scoreless relief since taking over for Tommy Byrne in the fourth, shouldered that lead into the Dodgers' half of the inning.
		Page was rocked for two home runs, the first a one-out shot by Luis Olmo, who hit one homer for Brooklyn in the regular season, and the second a two-out smash by Roy Campanella.

	Why Can't I Buy Maalox in a Drum?
		In baseball's growing years pitchers were seen as any other position player; they were to perform at their spot come hell or high water, were only relieved in emergencies or blowouts, and then often switched with another player in the field.
		Mound distance didn't expand to 60 feet, 6 inches until 1893, balls were much less lively, and throwing a dirty or lopsided one out of a game seldom happened.
		That Tommy Byrne became Brownie bound (over Stengel's protests) in no way diminishes the radicality of the concept.

		In truth, during the long history of Major League Baseball, a group of 15 players (or more) have played together for three consecutive seasons (or more) and have won at least two World Championships a total of TWENTY ONE times.
		They were regulars who played together for seven straight years and were crowned as the best team in baseball in five of those years.
		Given the structure of baseball today, with an emphasis on player mobility and intentional attempts to ensure parity, we may never see a seven year run such as this group accomplished.
