Sadly...had Lolich pitched for the Yankees, he would have been a first ballot inductee.Lolich won three games in the 1968 World Series. All complete games. This has not been done by many. He beat the unbeatable Bob Gibson in game 7.Okay by me.If you elect Jack Morris ....why not Denny McClain and Mickey Lolich?
However it is too late for both and Denny would never get in, after all his shenanigans.
Lolich was great...and had a very long effective career. He did eat too many donuts.
He won 14 or more games for 10 consecutive seasons....nearly all complete games. 200 or more strike outs seven times...fourth among all left handers.
He deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.
