Last Week's Trivia Question:

Who is the only pitcher whose last win was a no-hitter?

On Sep 19 1986, Chicago White Sox pitcher Joe Cowley threw a no-hitter against the California Angels, striking out eight and walking seven and giving up one run (he walked the bases loaded and Reggie Jackson brought in the run on a sac fly).   It would turn out to be the last win of his career.  He had three further starts that year, going 0-2.   During the off season, the White Sox traded Cowley to the Phillies for Gary Redus.  Cowley pitched five games for the Phillies, going 0-4 with a 15.43 ERA.  He was sent to the minors and never pitched in the major leagues again.

This Week's Question:

Sandy Koufax was the first pitcher to win consecutive Cy Young Awards.  Who was the second?
