So what? I driven 83 mph several times this season. (Thank goodness I haven't been clocked at 83...)
Anyway, yet another example of the Cubs pitching curse - Ryan O'Malley, a rookie pitcher from Springfield, IL, started his second major league game Tuesday night against Moyer. He had already won his first game against Houston last week, thowing 8 shutout innings. He was apparently cruising along Tuesday when (surprise!), he came up with an elbow injury after thowing a ball back to the umpire in the 5th, and had to leave while 200 friends and family were in the stands for his Wrigley Field debut. He had never been on the DL before in his career.
Damn goat.
