Sometimes credited as being the fastest baseball pitcher ever, Walter Johnson (November 6, 1887 - December 10, 1946) pitched 110 shutouts (a record he still holds) and led the Washington Senators to victory in 416 games. Johnson held the career record in strikeouts (3,509) for over 50 years until Nolan Ryan, Steve Carlton, and Gaylord Perry (in that order) all surpassed it in 1983.
