With the arrival of the Stats Database, we begin to notice these things again. A pretty 
historical SPB event happened on June 28, 1979, when the Rats Gaylord Perry became the 1st 
pitcher in the history of SPB-1 to win 300 Games in his career.  Gaylord has had an amazing 
career in SPB.  That "spitter" has been workin!  Congrats to Joe on this achievement.....
especially since I believe Joe has had Gaylord his entire 18 year career thus far!  He is 
up to 305 wins and still had 4 more Full Time seasons to add to that total.
