For his career he posted a 240-138 record, including 25 complete games and four shutouts. He struck out 2,251 batters in 3,055.1 innings and finishes his career with a .635 winning percentage, which ranked as seventh-best among active pitchers before he made his announcement.
And as a loyal Orioles fan, more than just a part of me is thrilled that Andy Pettitte has finally called it quits. It seems like the O’s never had a chance when Pettitte was on the mound, even late into his career.
And as the numbers on the last slide bear out, it was a lot uglier for the O’s against him than I thought.
But Pettitte didn’t just torment the O’s. He was just as filthy against plenty of other teams. In fact, Pettitte only has an ERA over 5.00 against one team that he had more than three starts against. Kudos to you Texas Rangers!
So, here they are, without further ado, the ten teams most happy to bid farewell to New York Yankee Andy Pettitte.
