Carl Hubbell, a Hall of Fame left-handed pitcher, won 253 games from 1928 to 1943 and is celebrated for his 1934 All-Star Game performance, striking out Babe Ruth and other stars. Christy Mathewson, another Hall of Famer, earned 373 career victories, tying the National League record, with remarkable seasons in the early 1900s. Mel Ott, a slugging outfielder and Hall of Famer, hit 511 home runs, second only to Willie Mays in NL history.
