In MLB, for pitchers with at least 15 decisions for the year, that would be Roy Face of the 1959 Pittsburgh Pirates who went 18-1 for a winning percentage of .947. For pitchers with at least 20 decisions for the year, that would be Greg Maddux of the 1995 Atlanta Braves who went 19-2 for a winning percentage of .905. Currently (September 13, 2008), Cliff Lee of the Cleveland Indians has a record of 21-2 for a winning percentage of .913. He has a shot at beating Maddux's record but has no shot at Face.
