    • The kings of the '80s

    "The 20-year-old right-hander’s mark, accomplished in his seventh major league start, will be matched by Burt Hooton (1971) and Rick Sutcliffe (1984) but will remain the standard for a nine-inning game until Kerry Wood’s 20-K performance in 1998."

  • 2024
    "Rick Sutcliffe and Ron Darling were the starting pitchers on an overcast afternoon that featured a near-full house of 32,403 (remember, the capacity of Wrigley in 1984 was just a bit over 36,000)."

  • 2023
    "The 15th strikeout of the game, of Alou, tied the Cubs’ team record for a nine-inning game, which had been set by Dick Drott in 1957 and tied by Burt Hooton in 1971 (in just his second big-league start) and Rick Sutcliffe in 1984."

  • 2018
    "He became the first pitcher since Rick Sutcliffe in 1987 to do all that while not allowing a run."

  • 2017
    "Rick Sutcliffe remembers that Oriole Park at Camden Yards had an old soul, a true baseball soul, months before it was even open."

  • 2016
    "Rick Sutcliffe, who started Game 1 of the 1984 National League Championship Series for the Cubs, unofficially opened Chicago's fifth trip to the NLCS with Saturday's ceremonial first pitch before Game 1 against the Dodgers at Wrigley Field."
