It's October, and that means baseball is at its best. Heading into the World Series, there have been many players worthy of the W.H.O.A. award. But one handsome man stands out with his statistics and consistency. Our winner this week is New York Yankee's left-handed pitcher, Andy Pettitte!

This Sunday, Pettitte led the Yankees to a game six American League Championship Series victory that guaranteed the Yankees a spot for the 2009 World Series. He pitched 6.1 innings, struck out six batters, and allowed only one run off of seven hits. This marks Pettite's fifth series-clinching win in his professional career.

This tall, dark, and handsome athlete has a 14-8 record and a 4.16 ERA for the regular season. For the post season, he has a 2.37 ERA and 15 strike outs for the three games he has pitched thus far.

Pettitte has seemed to always be a standout baseball player. He joined the Yankee's in 1995 and stayed with the team until 2003, leaving with four World Series Championship titles.

In 2004 he signed a three year, $31.5 million deal with the Houston Astros but started his first season short with an elbow injury. In 2005, Pettitte came back with a 2.39 ERA and the Astros went to their first World Series. When 2006 came around he had a 14-13 record, 4.20 ERA, and the Astros missed the playoffs. He then took a deal with the Yankees in 2007 and has been pitching there since.

In Major League Baseball, Pettitte has never had a losing record. He has played in 38 postseason games and has had an impressive 16 playoff wins, which is the most in baseball history. His postseason career includes a 16-9 record, 3.89 ERA, and 154 strikeouts.

There are also a few awards and honors that Pettitte has won over the years. In 1996 he was an AL selection for the All-Star Game and the winner of the Good Guy Award, from the New York Sports Photographers. In 2001, he was selected for the All-Star Game a second time and eventually he was named MVP of the ALCS.

But sorry ladies, the sizzling hot lefty with the sexy chin dimple is taken. Off the field, Pettitte has built a family with a wife and four children. The Christian man has seemed to have a mountain of success.

Make sure you tune in to the 2009 World Series starting this Wednesday, October 28th, to see how much more Andy Pettitte and the New York Yankees will achieve.
