Growing up as a Sox fan I’ve had the pleasure of watching
the career of Mark Buehrle first & foremost throughout my life. It was a
pure joy and entertainment to say the least, there’s something special about rooting
for a guy that continually finds ways to defy the odds of the “experts”. When
Buehrle took the mound you knew he would give the Sox a good chance to win a
game and as an added bonus more times than not would give the bullpen some
rest. Buehrle was more than a typical innings-eater; he was a great pitcher
(still is!), much of which gets overshadowed.
