I thought it was a great call, ... He's got his elbow on the outer third of the plate with that huge arm guard, he's got no incentive to move. I'm pretty sure the pitch would have been a strike.
More Quotes from Jeff Weaver:
I'm excited. I think everyone that goes out there is a No. 1. I think it is a sign of a great rotation. That is what wins pitching and defense. If everyone stays healthy and does what they're capable of, it is going to be a fine year.Jeff Weaver
He had to work his tail off just to get another chance to pitch. More than anything, hopefully he shows that his health isn't an issue. He never had any trouble with his arm. He was always a control pitcher. My only hope is some teams start to know what he can do and get him an invitation to spring training next year.
