birthday boy (answered)

[mclusky]

My birthday is April 6.



I played in the 1970s, '80s and '90s.



I threw 60 shutouts in my career, the most of anyone not in the Hall of Fame.



My best pitch was once described as "a bowel-locking, jelly-leg-inducing curveball"



I was born in the Netherlands



Who am I?
