Lolich is best known for his performance in the 1968 World Series, when he allowed just five runs in three complete games, winning all three including the final and decisive game. He remains the last pitcher to win three complete games in a single World Series.
Lolich was a picture of consistancy, winning 14 or more games for ten consecutive seasons including 25 in 1971 and 22 in 1972. He also struck out 200 or more batters seven times during his career and ranks third among lefthanders (behind Steve Carlton and Randy Johnson) in career strikeouts with 2,832.
