Tom Seaver and Catfish Hunter, two defining pitchers of the 1970s, faced each other in high-stakes matchups, most notably during the 1973 World Series where Hunter generally held the upper hand. Though Seaver would probably be noted by most as being the more dominant pitcher, Hunter claimed renown by winning the pivotal Game 6, of the '73 WS.
