Finally a ray of light in a season filled with more injuries than a 12 year old knife juggling contest. Chamberlin was nothing short of phenomenal last night regularly hitting 99 mph on the radar gun while striking out seven and walking one in 6 2-3 innings. They even extended the Joba rules to 114 pitches.
Meanwhile has anyone ever heard much about Dan Giese? Yeah, neither have I. I did a little research and it turns out this guys story is a whole lot like the movie The Rookie. The long and short of it is that he was a career minor leaguer who left baseball and became a used car sales man before finally returning to the game. He made his first major league start against the Reds the other day, and even though he didn't win you still have to love a story like that.
