On this day in Yankees history - Andy Pettitte's 200th win in pinstripes
On June 11, 2010, 37-year-old Andy Pettitte joined Whitey Ford and Red Ruffing as the only Yankee pitchers to reach 200 victories with the team. He also reached 3,000 career innings in the first frame of the 4-3 win against, ironically, the Houston Astros at the stadium.
"It's great, the guys all coming in here and hugging me and Mariano with a big ol' smile on his face and the baseball and handed it to me. That's awesome," said Pettitte. "It's special ... There's not a lot of guys that have won that many games as a Yankee. It's a good thing. I am real happy."
Pettitte finished his 15 year Yankee career as the team's all-time strikeout leader (2,020) going 219-127 with a 3.94 ERA. He won five World Series rings, was selected to three All Star games and was named ALCS MVP in 2001. He ranks third in wins, innings (2,796 1/3) and WAR (51.6) and is tied with Whitey for first in games started (438). On top of all that, he also holds the league record for: playoff games started (44) playoff innings pitched (276.2) and playoff wins (19). His career record is 256-153 with a 3.85 ERA
Number 46 was retired by the Yankees on August 23, 2015.
