"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Logan’s Run

Mark Simon has a neat little post on Boone Logan over at ESPN:

Lefty reliever Boone Logan, now more valuable with news coming down that Damaso Marte may not pitch again this season, has now made 22 straight appearances without allowing a run. He whiffed the two batters he faced in Wednesday’s comeback win.

That scoreless streak, via calculations made on Baseball-Reference.com, is the third-longest streak of scoreless games by a Yankees pitcher in the Live-Ball Era (since 1920).

What a Boone! What a do-er!
What a dream-come-er-true-er was he!

In retrospect, I think I hated having two lefties in the pen more than the idea of Boone himself.

[2] ! You're in a good mood. I suspect it may have to do with the fact that Chessmaster Joe has done nothing even marginally appalling to your senses today...
