Welcome To DennyMcLain.com
Denny McLain was the last 30 game winner in Major League Baseball.
His record in 1968 was 31-6. As of today, (37 years later), no one has matched this great accomplishment.
As a kid growing up I was a pitcher in the local little league for several years.
My baseball glove had a 31 right in the center of the palm with 31 stars around it.
At the time I'm sure I had no clue what it meant, but later I learned who Denny McLain was and of course that
the 31 represented his 31 wins in 1968.
As I have grown older I have tried to learn more about Denny.
I've read his books, collected his baseball cards, and have tried to keep up on his life.
Being an Internet programmer for a living it was a natural for me to
create a website to try to centralize all of the information that I had collected concerning him.
If you're not familiar with Denny McLain and his story, I think you'll find it quite fascinating. I have.
