Dossier

James Evan Perry Jr. (born October 30, 1935) is an American former professional baseball pitcher who played in Major League Baseball from 1959 to 1975. Born in Williamston, North Carolina, Perry attended Campbell University before signing with the Cleveland Indians in 1956. Over a 17-year career he pitched for the Cleveland Indians, Minnesota Twins, Detroit Tigers, and Oakland Athletics, compiling 215 wins, 1,576 strikeouts, and a 3.45 earned run average.

Perry finished second to Bob Allison in the 1959 American League Rookie of the Year vote, then followed with an 18-win season in 1960. He was a three-time MLB All-Star and won the American League Cy Young Award in 1970, when he posted a record of 24–12.

He is the older brother of Hall of Fame pitcher Gaylord Perry, with whom he was a Cleveland teammate in 1974–1975. The two became the first brothers to both win 200 games in the major leagues and remain the only brothers to both win Cy Young Awards. The Perry brothers trail only the Niekro brothers, Phil and Joe, for career victories by brothers.
