When Joba Met Billy

Joba Chamberlain offered to toss some batting practice to Billy Crystal.

"About 99 (mph)"?

"Yeah," Crystal nodded. "Underhand."

Joba promised he wouldn't throw Crystal any four-seamed fastballs.

"I don't want to break any bats this early," Chamberlain said.

"Good," Crystal replied. "I only have one."

The batting order was just announced. Crystal got a bigger ovation from the crowd than Derek Jeter did.
