Sky's the Limit

Joba Chamberlain picked up a short shutout this evening, going 6 2/3 innings against the Pirates in a 10-0 Yankees victory. He gave up two singles before yielding to Ohlendorf, but was allowed to throw 114 pitches. I figured after he came out after 100 pitches in his last start, that would be his limit for a while. I guess not. In an era when most pitchers seldom go over 100 pitches, being stretched out to 114, after being so careful with him, is surprising.

Sounds like yanks are so desperate they are willing to risk their future now. Well they don't have much else going on so....

Oh wait...they signed Ponson. Well their problems are over now!

Exactly, they were so "desperate" that they let him pitch another 2/3 of an inning in a game they were winning 8-0. How do Red Sox fans know so much about baseball? It's uncanny.
