Bob Gibson made MLB lower the mound in 69' I just think a player that forced a professional league to change the rules because of "his" dominance is very impressive.

It was way more than just Bob Gibson.

1968 was "The Season of the Pitcher." And by that they meant a generic "the" not "Bob Gibson the Pitcher." 🙂

Across MLB the season-long ERA was below 3.00!

Yaz won the batting title at 0.301. Seven starters had ERA under 2.0.
