Yep, Gibson in '68. Year before the mound was raised — there was too much pitching dominance (that was the year that the Tigers' Denny McLain won the MVP with 31 Ws). His ERA was 1.12
I have his '68 baseball card from my dad

Tris Speaker 792. I hope he's a relative of yours because that was WAY obscure.
Other than USC, which PAC-10 team has made the most appearances in the Rose Bowl?

No, we're not related as far as I know. I saw it on a show about the greatest Red Sox of all time and its just stuck with me.
