One man’s Franchise, another man’s Bartolo Colon. Interesting perspective on a pitcher just passing through….
He was able to eat up plenty of innings for the Sox, with 12 of his 16 starts lasting at least six frames, including his Boston masterpiece on Aug. 8 when he threw a complete game with nine strikeouts in a 6-1 win over Detroit.

Now if you want to play a fun game….play What If with Tom’s back. He was still good as late as August 8th. What if he’s available in the 1986 World Series? Can you imagine Tom pitching at Shea Stadium in Game 7? Oh my.
