This week, Duane Ward! Duane was the Toronto Blue Jays first and (to this date) last winning pitcher in the World Series. Between 1991 and 1993, Ward was one of the best relievers in baseball. First as Tom Henke's set-up man in 91/92 and then in 1993 as the Blue Jays closer. That coincided with the Blue Jays back to back World Series titles. in that run he had 80 saves and a 2.31 ERA in 280 innings. He was credited with the Blue Jays first World Series win in 1992...and won the last game of the 1993 Series. In 8 World Series appearances he had a 1.13 ERA. And then, he was out of baseball at 31 due to injuries.
