Willard Nixon
Baseball
The native of Taylorsville, Georgia, signed with the Red Sox as a free agent in 1948 out of Auburn University. In his nine-season career, he posted a 69–72 record with a 4.39 ERA and 616 strikeouts in 225 appearances, including 177 starts, 51 complete games, nine shutouts and three saves. In 1,234 innings pitched he surrendered 1,277 hits and 530 bases on balls.\n', '
Nixon had a 12–10 mark with the 1955 Red Sox. Four of those wins came at the expense of the New York Yankees. In 1954 and 1955, Nixon beat the Yankees five straight times. Although his numbers against the Yanks deteriorated during his final two campaigns (1957 and 1958), his previous success—going 11–6 in 25 games pitched—earned him the nickname "Yankee Killer." Over his career, he won half of his 24 decisions, threw ten complete games and two shutouts, and compiled a 3.54 ERA against the Bombers.\n', '
