Found this description of Gibson online:
Now I have only seen photos and videos of Bob Gibson pitch and that is still enough to make me scared of this man.

His non-traditional delivery might have been slightly over the top but it was also incredibly effective and somehow managed to put him in great fielding position since he won a Gold Glove nine times.

Gibson was an All-Star nine times, the 1968 National League MVP and a two-time winner of the Cy Young Award, who also pitched a no-hitter in 1971. His 1.12 ERA in 1968 is still a Major League record today.

But where Gibby truly excelled was when it mattered, the postseason. Gibson's performances in the 1964 and 1967 World Series earned him the WSMVP award both times. He also holds the MLB records for most strikeouts during a World Series with 35 and most strikeouts during a World Series game with 17.

Nolan was a beast but I'll take Gibson.
