Phil Niekro was 21-20 in 1979...Don't think it's happened since then...Originally posted by Michaels07

At that time he was the first pitcher to win and lose at least 20 games in the same season since 1906 ...
Hmmm...After checking through 1906 I couldn't find any 20-20 pitchers so I looked through 1905 and found Boston Beaneaters hurler Irv Young went 20-21...
