Pirates vs. Blue Jays, bottom of sixth

Elmer Dessens is the new pitcher for the Pirates.
Listen to this guy's itinerary since 1993, when he signed with Pittsburgh as a non-drafted free agent:
1993--Mexico City; 1994--Mexico City (11-4); 1995--Carolina (15-8); 1996--Calgary, Mexico City, Pittsburgh and Carolina; 1997--Mexico City and Pittsburgh; 1998--Pittsburgh and Nashville; 1999--Yomiuri, Japanese Eastern League and Japanese Central League; 2000--Louisville and Cincinnati Reds; 2001-02--Cincinnati; 2003--Arizona; 2004--Arizona and Los Angeles; 2005--Los Angeles and Las Vegas; 2006--Kansas City Royals, Los Angeles and Las Vegas; 2007--Milwaukee Brewers, Nashville, Colorado Springs and Colorado Rockies.
Think Elmer Dessens loves the game?
He allows a hit but no runs, leaving the Pirates within striking range at 2-0 entering the seventh.
