1. Addie Joss 1902-1910
2. Ed Walsh 1904-1917
3. Monte Ward 1878-1884
5. Christy Mathewson 1900-1916
6. Walter Johnson 1907-1927
7. Mordecia Brown 1903-1916
8. Charlie Sweeney 1883-1887
9. Reb Russell 1913-1919
10. Jim Devlin 1875-1877
11. Smoky Joe Wood 1908-1920
12. George Bailey 1875-1884
13. Tommy Bond 1874-1884
14. Babe Adams 1906-1926
You may have noticed I skipped #4...
