He outdueled the great Bob Gibson, who won games 1 and 4, in game 7. Gibson also pitched complete games in all three starts.

Back to your question. Yes, but not anymore. They baby the pitchers these days.

Don't be surprised to see Hamels come back on short rest if the Phils are in trouble, but I'm sure they won't be.....

Please tell me you had to look this up? 68 and remembering that is aging yourself, like more then GPK style
