Talk about a lot of work for nothing. In 1892, while pitching for the Chicago Colts, “Wild Bill” Hutchison could manage only a .500 record even with a 2.74 era. A season after winning 25 more games than he lost, Hutchison could only muster a 36-36 mark while pitching a back-breaking 622 innings. Between 1890 and 1892, Wild Bill averaged 595 innings pitched. It may be why he only lasted nine years in the league.
