Amazing Suckage

[apolivka]

Check out this horrific outing by Curtis Leskanic (somehow renamed "Curt" in the replay). I'm getting smoked, and the game was pretty much already over when he starts the bottom of the 7th. 1st batter Ripkin--BOOM home run. Then he walks Olrud, but the next batter Greg Vaughn hits into a double play, so you might think he's going to get out without much damage. But no, the next eight guys reach scoring six more until the same Greg Vaughn mercifully ends it with a flyout.

Then he trots out there in the 8th (still at F9 for some reason) and proceeds to pour more gasoline on the fire! It takes two more hits and a walk till HAL finally yanks him.

Now, Leskanic's card is terrible, and I'm sure there are worse outings out there, but this one was pretty darn funny. Is this the worst shelling you've ever seen of a guy that stays at F9?

Leskanic the Mechanic!

[quote:fd0a662e5c]On April 11, 2005, Leskanic would return to Fenway Park to receive his World Series ring. He was received with a standing ovation, as did all members of the 2004 Boston Red Sox. Johnny Pesky greeted him during the ring ceremony by saying, "Leskanic! You son of a *****" [/quote:fd0a662e5c]
