"During the winter, Johnny thought he would retire, but when spring training opened he was rarin' to go.
A veteran of 10 years in the majors, he broke in with the Braves and won 20 games four times. His season's high was in 1948 when he led the Boston team to the pennant and topped the National League with 24 victories. In '51 he went to the Yankees and tamed American League batters in '52 to win 11 games."
