Good story in the Bah-staaan Globe this a.m. Bill James, the numbers nerd, did his thing on Pedro. The result that he come up with was that Pedro's performance typically takes a noticeable nose dive right at 105 pitches. The 2-run shot that Olerud hit last night came on Petey's 106th. pitch of the game. Coincidence?
PS- Don't tell anyone, but I've been changing my mind about Manny. The guy just enjoys himself out there- likes to have fun. Great to see. Of course, he still hasn't learned how to run out a ground ball......but he certainly ain't alone there(including a coupla guys on the Yankees).
