This is what I love to see! And this is what the Red Sox needed, hopefully they can gain a ton of momentum after this no-no. Congrats Clay keep up the good work!

this guy has one of the best 12-6 curves i have seen in a LONG time. jus watch the last pitch of the game. and to think, he was pretty much a freebie, as he was sent to the sox as compensation for Pedro signing with to the Mets.

great job.

I completely agree with you..its sort of like watching a (circa 2004) Barry Zito pitch, only he has a little more velocity on his curve..its like its falling straight off of a table, lol..kid's got a good changeup too..

absolutely. great comparison, Hoss. it was that pitch that single-handedly made Zito my favorite pitcher to watch.
