Old news
Must be really cool to throw in the 80's with both arms.

I've never seen it. That's awesome.

Pretty sweet deal...when one arm goes out, you've always got a replacement.

Never thought of it like that!! :lol:

Never go on the DL, that's for sure!

Didn't Greg Harris pitch from both sides in a game for the Red Sox back in the early 90's? I seem to remember they let him do it for his last start one year.

Greg A. Harris could do the same thing. Although I don't think he ever did it in a game. He had a similar glove specially made for him like Venditte.

EDIT: ^^ You Beat me to it. ^^

pat is on the staff my baseball factory (the strike zone) in omaha. i have seen him throw a couple of times (creighton) and i think he will be a fairly successful middle reliever. aside from the circus aspect he can get folks out...

LOL he can pitch today right handed and if needed come out of the pen
and throw lefty the very next day.

I know he's old for his league, but he's having pretty good numbers in the Yankees farm. I'd like to see him make the big club one day.
