Denny McLain

Dennis Dale "Denny" McLain (born March 29, 1944) is an American former right-handed pitcher who spent ten seasons in the major leagues, most prominently with the Detroit Tigers. In 1968 he went 31–6 with a 1.96 ERA, becoming the last pitcher to win 30 or more games in a season, and won both the American League Cy Young Award and the MVP Award, the first AL pitcher to take both in the same year, as the Tigers won the pennant by 12 games and then the World Series. He won two Cy Young Awards in all. Outspoken as a player, he later served prison time after convictions tied to organized crime and embezzlement.
