Al Leiter and Mike Piazza were the only reasons I kept glued to the World Series in 2000...I was probably one of the only people outside New York who actually watched every game! Last year I saw Al pitch at Fenway in his first game as a Yankee...he kicked ass. ALL over the place. He was amazing. Of course, he never pitched that well the rest of the season.
As bummed as I was to see the Sox lose, a small part of me was very happy for Al.
Here's hoping we see him on Fox soon, replacing Tim McIdiot in the booth.
Good luck, Al! Thanks for the memories!
