Letters to Sports: Dodgers’ Emmet Sheehan and Dave Roberts deserve more praise
LA TimesWhat a great article on Emmet Sheehan. Where most young people would have stayed in their mother’s basement on the couch and played video games, Emmet continued practicing his delivery, read self-help books, exercised and changed his diet, also studied YouTube videos for known pitchers. Mark Mallinger Malibu Dodgers Inside Emmet Sheehan’s rise from unheralded prospect to Dodgers pitcher Emmet Sheehan wasn’t much of a pro prospect until revamping his pitching style. Ken Feldman Tarzana :: In the postgame interview after the 8-6 loss to the A’s, Yankee manager Dave Roberts explained that even though Domingo Germán was perfect after five innings, he pulled him to save him for the big upcoming weekend series against Baltimore. Jeff Knott Fullerton :: Domingo Germán’s perfect game reminded me of the night 28 years ago, when the Dodgers’ Ramón Martínez pitched a no-hit gem against the Marlins, allowing only a walk on a 3-and-2 count with two out in the eighth inning to spoil what would have been the first perfect game by a Dominican Republic pitcher.
