One 'wild' stat that illustrates Kyle Hendricks' ridiculous control

In a previous piece of mine, I took a look to find Cubs who were the only players in the Majors in 2018 to accomplish something.

Kyle Hendricks was the only pitcher in the Majors in 2018 to toss at least 160 innings without throwing a wild pitch. In 2017, he didn’t throw one either; he was one of only four pitchers in the Majors to toss at least 100 innings without throwing a wild pitch.

His last wild pitch came on Sept. 5, 2016, in the bottom of the 6th inning at Miller Park.
