Get David Wells

David Wells was born on 20 May 1963 in Torrance, California, USA. He is an actor and executive, known for Uptown Girls (2003), Arli$$ (1996) and For NYC (2020). He has been married to Nina Fisher since 15 December 2000. They have two children.

Wells played for nine different teams during his 21-year MLB career (Toronto, Detroit, Cincinnati, Baltimore, New York Yankees, Chicago White Sox, San Diego, Boston, Los Angeles Dodgers).

Since the league starting tracking exit velocity in 2015, here are the top 10 hits in the 2022 MLB season thus far: Oneil Cruz, Pittsburgh Pirates – 122.4 mph. Giancarlo Stanton, New York Yankees – 119.8 mph. Shoehei Ohtani, Los Angeles Angels – 119.1 mph. Aaron Judge, New York Yankees – 118.4 mph.

At his peak, his fastball sat in the low 90s and later in his career, the high 80s. But it was his pinpoint control, evidenced by his impressive walk rate of less than four percent of batters faced that made Wells a success in pinstripes.

It is one of the rarest feats in baseball and a subset of no-hitters. The first major league perfect game was thrown in 1880 by Lee Richmond. Only five days later, John Ward threw the second one.

He won 20 games just once and his ERA was simply too high for the Hall. Numbers don't lie: Wells is the only pitcher in major league history with at least 200 wins, a . 600 winning percentage (. 604) and an ERA of over 4.00.

On July 18, 1999, David Cone of the New York Yankees pitched the 16th perfect game in Major League Baseball (MLB) history and the third in team history, and the first no-hit game in regular season interleague play.
