Order by the year each pitcher first won a Cy Young. You place all 59 cards on one timeline, one at a time. Three wrong guesses ends the run.
You're ordering Cy Young Award winners by the year each pitcher first won it. A note under each name gives his team and a word about his style or role. One winner begins on the timeline with his year showing. Slot each new card into a gap. A correct pick reveals the year, and a miss sends the pitcher to his real spot at the cost of one of three lives.
Starters make up most of the deck, with a few relievers mixed in. Workhorses, flamethrowers and crafty lefties span the award's whole history, and repeat winners show up only for their first. The team line occasionally hints at a rough era through an old franchise name; otherwise it comes down to remembering when each ace broke through.
