Kyle Hendricks celebrates 100th career win with former Angels pitcher who tutored him as a youngster
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Kyle Hendricks' 100th career victory created a full-circle moment. The 35-year-old right-hander helped pitch the Los Angeles Angels to a 5-4 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Friday night. And he got to celebrate his milestone with a mentor. Former Angels left-hander Clyde Wright, who threw a no-hitter for the franchise in 1970, began tutoring Hendricks at his Anaheim pitching school when Hendricks, who grew up in South Orange County, was 12. Wright, now 84, finished his 10-year big league career with 100 wins in 1975.
