[edit]- ... that Detroit Wolverines pitcher George Derby won 29 games, led the National League in strikeouts and had 55 complete games in his first major league season?

5x expanded by Cbl62 (talk). Self nominated at 03:42, 7 June 2014 (UTC).
- Hook is cited in various parts of the article, but hook is not presented in a single sentence in the article, which means it technically is not cited appropriately ... rest of the article looks good, Cbl62. Go Phightins! 22:13, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
- Expanded 2 June, nominated 7 June, therefore new enough; also long enough. QPQ done. The three elements of the hook are each separately but clearly referenced to online citation #1 within the text. I do not understand baseball (I am British, haha) but I accept Phightins! review above that the hook is confirmed by citation. Image in article is free. No problems with disambig links. Access to online citations #1 and #2 OK. Citation links #3 and #5 lead to paywalls, but this is permissible for DYK. External links checked for sources of copyvio or close paraphrasing; none found. The text is written in an objective manner and neutral style, and is well-cited - although I would like to see a citation in the career statistics section.

Per DYK rules, the paragraph under Career statistics needs at least one cite. Yoninah (talk) 21:21, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
- @ Cbl62. Sorry we have another delay. Please add a citation to the paragraph under Career statistics. Thank you. --Storye book (talk) 15:03, 20 June 2014 (UTC)
I just added a citation to the paragraph under Career statistics. Thank you. --PFHLai (talk) 00:23, 29 June 2014 (UTC)
