The 'National League wins leaders' quiz

After the Milwaukee Brewers took the first two games of the World Series in dramatic fashion, the Tampa Bay Rays will hope returning to the friendly confines of Tropicana Field will help turn the tide of the Fall Classic.  

Manager Kevin Cash is turning to ALCS MVP Freddy Peralta for Game 3 at home, hoping he’ll continue to be as clutch as he was against the Cleveland Guardians. 

After coming over from the Mets at the trade deadline, Peralta seemed to regain the form he had over the last few years as a Brewer himself. “Fastball Freddy,” made two starts and three total appearances in the ALCS, allowing just one run and striking out nine across 12 innings. Now he needs to keep it rolling against his former team in his first-ever World Series start to keep Tampa Bay’s hopes alive.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Peralta is just a season removed from leading the National League in wins, posting 17 in Milwaukee in 2025. With that being said, can you name every pitcher to lead the NL in wins since 2000?

Good luck!
