Through the 2008 postseason, John Smoltz has 15 postseason wins and is the all time MLB leader in that category.

Andy Pettitte just tied John Smoltz with win number 15 in the first round of the 2009 playoffs against the Minnesota Twins.

Andy finished with 1 win in the ALCS and 2 in the World Series for a total of 18 wins in the playoffs.

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.

That would be Cy Young, with 511 career victories.
