1972 Topps #410 Fergie Jenkins


About Fergie Jenkins
Jenkins went 20-12 for the 1972 Cubs, with a 3.20 ERA and 23 complete games. His own fourth-series Cubs card is #410, and he shares two League Leaders cards with Tom Seaver. He heads the pitching leaders card #93, which adds Steve Carlton and Al Downing, and follows Seaver on the strikeout card #95, with Bill Stoneman third. The pairing recalls the 1971 Cy Young race, in which Jenkins took 17 of the 24 first-place votes.
Ferguson Arthur Jenkins of Chatham, Ontario, signed with the Philadelphia Phillies in 1962 and debuted out of the bullpen in September 1965. On April 21, 1966 the Phillies sent him to the Chicago Cubs with Adolfo Phillips and John Herrnstein for Larry Jackson and Bob Buhl, and the lanky right-hander had his first full season as a Cubs starter in 1967. Pitching in hitter-friendly Wrigley Field, he won 20 or more games in six straight seasons from 1967 through 1972, equaling Mordecai Brown's long-standing Cubs mark. He took the 1971 National League Cy Young Award after going 24-13 with 263 strikeouts against only 37 walks. He was an All-Star in 1967, 1971 and 1972, led the National League in wins in 1971 and the American League in wins in 1974, when a career-best 25 victories for the Texas Rangers brought him Comeback Player of the Year honors. He retired after the 1983 season with 284 wins, 3,192 strikeouts and 267 complete games, the first pitcher to reach 3,000 strikeouts while walking fewer than 1,000 batters. In 1991 he became the first Canadian elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
