1961 Back-O'-The-Card: Ryne Duren

"The fireballing right-hander was a bullpen sensation for the Yankees in 1958 and 1959, as his microscopic ERA verifies. Ryne was plagued by wildness last year, which hampered his effectiveness.
Ryne was named Rookie Pitcher of the Year in 1958. He pitched 31 2/3 scoreless innings in 1959. In one game, Ryne fanned the first five batters he faced."
