When Joe Torre faces a tough left-handed bat, he turns to his bullpen southpaw specialist, Mike Myers!
And this year, the crafty sidearmer has performed at a level unsurpassed by any Yankee.
Left-handed batters are hitting a measily .321 against Mike. That's the highest average they've compiled against any Yankee pitcher on the team!
In his combined 12 innings of pitching to lefties, he's given up 17 hits and 8 walks.
Congratulations, Mike. And thanks for being so special!
I like Mike because his entrance music is the Halloween theme!
