Randy Johnson, AKA The Big Unit, is one of the best pitchers in baseball history. He and Greg Maddux share a record that no other pitcher has approached! Randy’s high octane fastball, devastating slider, and 3/4 arm slot dominated hitters throughout his 22 year career. His imposing presence standing at 6 foot 10 rattled not just humans, but an unlucky bird as well. He has the second most Cy Youngs in baseball history, and led the league in ERA on 4 separate occasions. As he aged, he seemingly got better and better. Mid to late 30s Randy Johnson’s run of dominance is something that few pitchers can relate to.
