Robert Person, a pitcher for the Philadelphia Phillies, returned today for the first time since April 29 after an elbow injury. You would expect him to be a little rusty. Well, think again.
Forget that he pitched 5 innings of 3 hit ball.
Forget that he allowed only one run.
Forget that he struck out 5.
Forget that he was the winning pitcher in an 18-3 blowout.
But remember this....
He was 2 for 3 at the plate, crushed two home runs including a grand slam, drew a walk and had an incredible 7 RBI's.
An incredible day by Person.
