--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I along with only a handful of fans got to see something this morning that doesn't happen very often, if ever. At the Timberjacks game today at Lower Woodland Field, we were treated to quite a spectacle. We watched two ambidextrous pitchers throw back to back in a 3-0 win over the competition.
A started the game for the T-Jacks throwing from the right side, then the left, mixing it up at will and holding the opposing team to 0 runs. Then D came into relieve and switched from right to left at will, also holding the opponent to 0 runs.
Funny stuff, both guys therw a lot of strikes from both sides and easily transitioned switching arms from batter to batter. Very entertaining!

I've had the pleasure of seeing D do this on occasion, but I have never seen two guys in the same game, on the same team, pitch like this...Let alone throw a combined shut out.

I tried to look it up and can't seem to find any recorded history of this ever happening. Has anyone else ever witnessed anything like this, or heard about it?

Thanks A and D, it was a great way to end the summer!
