[edit] Biography

Born on December 23, 1942 in Appleton, Minnesota, Jerry Koosman (Jerome Martin Koosman) played for the New York Mets, Minnesota Twins, Chicago White Sox and Philadelphia Phillies over the course of his 19 year career. Koosman broke into the bigs on April 14, 1967 with the New York Mets, and put up a 2.08 ERA in 263.2 innings pitched in 1968, his rookie year.

There is some disagreement on what was Jerry Koosman's most productive season. Some believe that it was 1976, when he posted a 2.69 ERA, won 21 games and struck out 200 batters. However, others believe that it was 1968, when he posted a 2.08 ERA, won 19 games and struck out 178 batters.
