Brandon Webb Is My New Hero

Posted by Matt on May 8, 2008

As of Commencement this past Sunday, Brandon Webb and I now share one thing in common: we’re both alumni of the greatest university this side of Harvard, the University of Kentucky.

What we don’t share in common is our prowess on a pitching mound as Mr. Webb moved to 8-0 in eight starts for the Arizona Diamondbackes tonight after a complete game, three earned run performance against the Phillies. 

Webb is sporting an impressive 2.49 ERA while holding opposing hitters to below the Mendoza Line with an astounding .194 batting average against.  Brandon has only given up two home runs this season while striking out 41.

Brandon Webb, you sir have become my new hero and you sir are a complete bad ass.

    Can someone say Cy?

    MoonDog, you have a weird face. But then again, it’s probably because it’s pink pentagon. Webb has been impressive. Looks like Arizona is going to go back to the playoffs. Maybe the Cubs will have something more in store for them than that weak juice last year.

  6. Bob Swerski Says:

    Ya Shea. Kinda the juice the Cubbies just used to sweep the D-Bags this last weekend.

  7. MoonDog Says:

    I picked the D-backs at the start of the season to win it all. As of now, I look like a genuise, pink pentagon face and all. I’m actually that weird looking too.
