I think a Closer is above a Kick Returner, who MAY return a touchdown every three games or so, while a closer MUST do his job every night. It gets way more pub on TV and other media too.

That's the second tailor-made double play

that Clark has hit into as a Diamondback. Of course, through no effort of his own, neither of them were turned.

I’m beginning to worry that Clark may not end up being a better pinch hitter than Burke after all. At least D’Antona is here now!

Not a lot of motion on his pitches, but nice velocity. And even with a completely flat pitch the ball must drop like a curveball from the batters’ perspective.

It also helps that a 93 MPH fastball looks like a 97 MPH fastball when it’s being thrown by someone 6’11”.

Batman kickin ass and taking names was pretty sweet. Just went straight to business in all the fight scenes.

The Dark Knight was Abso-bleeping-lutely fantastic. Best movie I’ve seen this year.
