Time for an update. How about.... my leaders in pitching wins through 1874?
(1) 81 - George Zettlein, Chicago White Stockings, Baltimore Canaries
(2) 62 - Al Spalding, Boston Red Stockings
(3) 54 - Rynie Wolters, New York Mutuals
(4) 49 - Cherokee Fisher, Rockford Forest Citys-Troy Haymakers-Boston Red Stockings
(5) 48 - Al Pratt, Cleveland Forest Citys-Baltimore Canaries
(6) 45 - John "Lefty" McMullin, Troy Haymakers-Washington Blue Legs-Philadelphia Whites
(7) 44 - Dick McBride, Philadelphia Athletics
(8) 37 - Bill Stearns, Washington Olympics-Philadelphia Whites
(8) 37 - Phonney Martin, Troy Haymakers-Philadelphia Athletics
(10) 36 - Jim Britt, Brooklyn Atlantics
(11) 33 - Asa Brainard, Washington Olympics-Baltimore Marylands-New York Mutuals
(12) 30 - Bobby Mathews, Fort Wayne Kekiongas-Brooklyn Eckfords-Philadelphia Athletics
(13) 27 - Frank Buttery, Middletown Mansfields-Boston Red Stockings
(14) 19 - Candy Cummings, New York Mutuals
(15) 18 - Bill Kelly, Chicago White Stockings
(15) 18 - George Bechtel, Philadelphia Athletics
(17) 16 - Cy Bentley, Middletown Mansfields-Brooklyn Atlantics
(18) 13 - Hugh Campbell, Elizabeth Resolutes-Boston Red Stockings
(18) 13 - Frank Fleet, New York Mutuals
(20) 7 - 2 players tied
This, of course, necessitates another avatar shift. So, the new avatar will be George Zettlein of the White Stockings and Canaries. I'll probably do an update soon on one team's record-setting start in the Baseball History League.
