Correct! Grover Cleveland Alexander is one of two players to have 16 shutouts in a season, which he accomplished in 1916.

Walter Johnson was a great guess, and is the only person with more career shutouts (110) than Alexander's 90. Alexander has a pretty big lead over the 3rd place Christy Mathewson's 79 or Cy Young's 76.

But the Big Train's single season high was 11 in 1913.
