Description: This lot features the 2005 UD Sweet Spot, Steve Carlton Game Used Jersey #CM-SC PSA 9! Phillies POP 2! --- The second-winningest lefthander of all time behind Warren Spahn, Carlton is also second on the all-time strikeout list behind Nolan Ryan. He was the first pitcher ever to win four Cy Young Awards, and had six 20-win seasons. In 1970, a contract dispute kept him out of spring training, and he had trouble controlling his breaking pitches all season and lost 19 games. He went back to his fastball more the following year and won 20 games for the first time. Carlton asked for a $10,000 raise to $65,000 in that off-season and the Cardinals' management balked. Instead, they traded him to the Phillies for Rick Wise, a deal that will always be one of the most notorious in Cardinals history. Carlton was phenomenal in 1972, pitching as well for an entire season as any pitcher ever. He went 27-10 for a Phillies club that won only 59 games. He led the league in wins, ERA (1.97), strikeouts (310, only the second lefthander ever to reach 300), and complete games, and enjoyed a 15-game winning streak. Of course, he won his first Cy Young Award. Here’s a great looking example of his 2005 Game used card here. This beauty has 4 razor sharp corners, 4 exceptional borders and a blazing surface with full gloss, color and clarity. The reverse is crisp and clean with pack fresh background color, near perfect centering and no marks or blemishes of any kind.
