Walter Johnson 

Tom Seaver

Lefty Grove

Clemens had 42.
The Big Unit had 39.
Tom Seaver is tied for 3rd with 76 (with Gaylord).
Lefty had 37.

And correctly, Walter Johnson had 104.  Despite only one no-hitter to his credit, he's third in 1-hitters with seven (behind Ryan and Feller with 13 and 11), second in 2-hitters with 16 (behind Ryan's 18), tied for third in 3-hitters with 24 (behind Ryan and Seaver with 30 and 28), and far-and-away first in 4-hitters with 56 (Nolan Ryan only had 29 and is 11th on the list).

I have his no-hitter commemorative card. Also mentions his 1 and 2 hitters. I should’ve gotten that.

I can't blame you, since it's his crazy number of four-hitters that puts him over the top (I already left the page, but it was like 15 higher than the next highest one (Gaylord Perry).

Question #179:

Since 1950, Bert Blyleven has the second-worst W-L% in complete games among HOF pitchers.  He won just 69% of his complete games.

Which HOF pitcher since 1950 has a worse W-L% in his complete games than Blyleven?

Niekro's winning percentage among his complete games is .741, if you can believe it.

Nolan Ryan 

His was .734.

Hint: The guy does have over 100 CGs in his career.

Nope.  Eck had a .710 winning %.  He shared some career overlap with the answer, though.
