1985 - Milestone

05/25/1985 - Goltz Beats White Sox 6-2 for 200th Win

The Royals Dave Goltz wrote his name in the league history books by picking up career victory number 200 today against the Chicago White Sox. In the Kansas City 6-2 triumph at Royals Stadium, the 35-year-old hurler went 8.1 innings, allowed 9 hits and had 4 strikeouts and 1 walk. "I won't forget this day," an emotional Goltz told reporters. "It's hard to stay at the top for so long and to win 200 games is quite a feat."

Goltz has collected 200 wins and 137 losses over his career with a 3.61 ERA. The 35-year-old hurler also has struck out 1572 batters in 3024.1 innings and allowed 3093 hits. In real life, Goltz managed a 113-109 record in 12 seasons.
