Phillies GET |
Here's a trade at the time
looked like a good deal for both teams. Each pitcher had pitched in 7 seasons with
their respective teams. With the Cardinals, Carlton racked up 77 wins, while
Wise had 75 wins. In June of 1971, Wise pitched a no hitter while smashing 2
home runs in a game against the Reds. However, a trade was consummated that sent
him to the Phillies in a one for one swap for Steve Carlton. Carlton goes on to
become the second winningest lefty in big league history. |
