RIP Mike
Miguel Angel Cuellar Santana (May 8, 1937 -- April 2, 2010), best known as Mike Cuellar [coo-el'lyar] is a former left-handed starting pitcher in Major League Baseball who spent most of his career with the Baltimore Orioles. He shared the American League's Cy Young Award in 1969, and won 20 games four times from 1969 to 1974 as the Orioles captured five division titles. Cuellar, nicknamed "Crazy Horse" while with the Orioles, ranks among Baltimore's top five career leaders in wins (143), strikeouts (1011), shutouts (30) and innings pitched (2028), and trails only Dave McNally among left-handers in wins and shutouts.
