philly.com watch: Wonderful Story about Pitcher Jamie Moyer


I often criticize the Philadelphia newspapers for what they do wrong. Today I found something that’s done very right–a story about 47-year-old ex-Phillies’ pitcher Jamie Moyer.

Moyer, who injured his arm last summer, plans a comeback. He throws so slowly that batters get anxious. But he’s No. 38 on the all-time wins list.

More important, he and his wife have helped a number of sick children. He says he learned more about baseball when he looked outside of the game. Kudos to Larry Platt for this nice column at http://bit.ly/kocwhp
