Best Answer

Yes, Johnny Podres was a very good pitcher.

He played 13 seasons for the Dodgers (1953-1955, 1957-1966) and had a record of 136-104 with a 3.66 ERA, 74 complete games, and 23 shutouts for the team. He led the National League in ERA (2.66) and shutouts (6) in 1957.

He pitched in 4 World Series for the Dodgers and had a record of 4-1 with a 2.11 ERA, 2 complete games, and 1 shutout. He will always be remembered for his performance in the 1955 World Series against the Yankees when he threw two complete games and shutout the Yanks, 2-0, in Game 7 to give the Dodgers their first ever World Series victory.
