Season 3 of The Baseball Book Club begins with a look at two of the greatest pitchers the game has ever known. John and Leroy continue their countdown of Joe Posnanski’s The Baseball 100, turning their attention to Tom Seaver and Cy Young—two legends separated by nearly a century but connected by dominance on the mound.
The guys explore what made Seaver the defining ace of his generation and how Young became the standard by which pitching greatness is still measured today. Along the way they dig into the numbers, the stories, and the historical context that shaped both careers.
Two pitchers. Two eras. One fascinating conversation about what greatness on the mound really looks like.
