Mark Langston was a formidable left-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball for 16 seasons, leaving an indelible mark with his powerful arm and exceptional defensive skills. From his debut with the Seattle Mariners in 1984, Langston quickly established himself as a premier strikeout artist, leading the American League in that category in his rookie season and twice more in his career. A four-time All-Star, he was renowned for his durability and competitive fire on the mound. 

Over his career, which included stints with the Montreal Expos, California/Anaheim Angels, San Diego Padres, and Cleveland Indians, Langston compiled a record of 179 wins and 2,464 strikeouts with a lifetime ERA of 3.97. Beyond his pitching prowess, he was an outstanding fielder, earning seven Gold Glove Awards for his defensive excellence. A testament to his skill and a highlight of his career came on April 11, 1990, when he and teammate Mike Witt combined to pitch a no-hitter for the Angels against his former team, the Seattle Mariners. Langston's impact on the game is remembered through his consistent performance and his place among the top pitchers of his era.
