In 1968, Gibson pitched 34 times, marking 22 wins, 9 losses, and an earned run average of 1.12. Of the 34 games, 28 are completely pitched and 13 are shut out. Gibson won both the National League Cy Young Award and the MVP award.

It is an impossible pitch in 2023. Gibson pitched 304.2 innings at the time. Only eight pitchers pitched 200 innings in the 2022 season. Sandy Alcantara (Miami Marlins), who won the NL Cy Young Award, had the most innings in 228.2. Gibson has had 15 innings over 200 and two innings over 300 in 17 seasons.

Gibson, a st. Louis Legendary, retired after the 1975 season, and moved to Cooperstown in his first year of Hall of Fame induction in 1981.

Toronto Blue Jays Ryu Hyun-jin pitched six times before the Colorado Rockies on the 2nd after elbow ligament surgery. Five games, excluding four innings of pitching due to a knee injury against the Cleveland Guardians on August 8, are five innings of pitching. After returning from surgery, he became a pitcher in five innings.

Before the surgery, the number of pitches decided whether to replace Ryu Hyun-jin. However, he is now replaced after pitching five innings regardless of the number of pitches. Among the five games, the first game of his return on August 2 against the Baltimore Orioles and the Cleveland Guardians on August 27 are five innings plus. He also took the mound in the sixth inning, but was replaced without an out count.

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw, who had been working with Ryu Hyun-jin, also returned to the Colorado Rockies after 44 days on August 11 after a long absence due to a shoulder injury. Since then, three games in four appearances are five innings pitched. On August 24, the game against Cleveland was postponed due to rain and finished with two innings of pitching.

He pitched six innings before a shoulder injury on June 28. However, after his return, manager Dave Roberts has strictly limited him to five innings. In the past, Kershaw will be angry at pitching five innings, but he accepts it.

Roberts replaced him with a 4-1 lead over the Milwaukee Brewers, his second appearance since his return on the 17th. After the game, "The ball hit hard." "I thought it was right to change the batting order before the third return, and I talked to Kershaw," he explained to reporters.

In fact, Toronto coach John Schneider, who handles Ryu Hyun-jin, will be similar to Roberts. It is understood that he handles the pitcher carefully because he has undergone elbow ligament joint surgery. At the same time, the record cannot be ignored. This is the third batting order from the sixth inning. Ryu Hyun-jin had a batting average of 0.234 when he first met, a second 0.252 and a third 0.273.

The former starter's six-inning pitching could not receive much attention. However, a quality start of less than three runs in six innings has long been the standard for elite pitchers. Starting pitching in five innings is also precious for the team. Of course, five innings of pitching with a large number of runs is meaningless.

Except for four runs against Baltimore in his first game of his return, he allowed less than three runs. His earned run is only eight in 29 innings. It's a good pitch. What makes pitching five innings effective is that most teams competing for the postseason have excellent bullpen. It can also protect the starter's victory. It's a difference from the KBO League. However, pitching in five innings is not highly regarded. This is because the expectation for a high-paying starting pitcher is pitching more than six innings.
