The 50 Greatest Individual Player Seasons in Baseball History | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors
Once 1913 hit, Walter Johnson was in prime form, and not only did he have an amazing pitching season, but for a long time, he had the best pitching season ever.
Johnson went 36-7 with a 1.14 ERA, 11 shutouts, 243 strikeouts, a 12.4 WAR and 346 innings pitched, which was actually a light load in comparison to what he had been doing. As for his WAR, only two other pitchers managed WARs over seven, and no one was even close to 200 strikeouts, so saying he was dominant is putting it lightly.
