One Heck of a Mean Curveball

You know we’re feeling charitable when we post a video of a game that resulted in an L for the Boston Red Sox. Maybe it’s because the game took place in Vero Beach, home of the ‘rents, on-the-spot reader Pat, and the spring training Los Angeles Dodgers.

Anyhow, this isn’t quite as impressive as that unassisted triple play we posted the other day, but Dodger Clayton Kershaw’s curveball (25s) is one of the meanest ev-ah.

Is it really dorky to admit that we this just made us think of The Who’s rock musical Tommy and that line about how he can play a “mean pinball”? (You don’t have to answer that.)

As for Kershaw, the kid isn’t even old enough to drink or gamble legally. (He’s 20).
