Fun question. How about Warren Spahn? He pitched forever and had a lot of overlap with Drysdale, Newcombe, Gibson, etc. in what I'm assuming was the heyday of the pitcher's HR era

Or Robin Roberts who often lead the league in HRs allowed.

Nope. American League.

A Senator not named Johnson.

My final guess was going to be Camilo Pascual
RE: pitching trivia - Phogge - 12-04-2020
Really close. Think #2.

Ding. Ding, Bobbbbbbbb.

Well after a brobdingnagian hint to someone who saw Ramos pitch I think :)
RE: pitching trivia - Phogge - 12-04-2020
Pretty sure I saw him pitch in relief at Candlestick for the Reds at the end of his career. First time I saw the Senators on Game of the Week I only remember two guys because they could hit. Mickey Vernon and Pete Runnels. Vernon had a batting title and I believe Runnels had two with the Red Sox.
Checked. Vernon had two batting titles with the Senators.
