Lucas Harrell, who will pitch in G2 on Saturday, will face Jamie Moyer, the Satchel Paige of our generation. Just in case you were wondering about the generational gap between Harrell and Moyer, Harrell had this to say:
“I used to play with Jamie Moyer when he was with the Mariners on Super Nintendo. He was one of my favorite pitchers to use. He had the super change pitch. It’s definitely an honor. It’s a very big step in my career.”
Moyer reportedly responded by saying, "I understand. I used to use Lefty Grove in my pinball baseball game."
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
