Andy Pettitte and Phil Coke

Baseball lives for its stats, which is why the steroids use by players hurts and angers baseball fans, while positive drug tests for NFL thugs result in only yawns of indifference.

So, it is incredible to see the following in yesterday's box score for the Yanks/Soxes:

             Pettitte: IP7, H5, R0, ER0, BB0, S4  -  No decision

              Coke:     IP1, H3, R2, ER2, BB0,  S1  - Winning Pitcher

Go figure.
