1871, back when men were men, and pitchers started every game for their team, barring injury, Mike Jackson was the horse for the Fort Wayne Wizards. Check out those stats!
He just missed out on the ERA crown by one point...to this guy.

Of course, since he saved 21 games for him, he probably forgave him.
