The Return of IPK Flabbergasts John Sterling

Ian Patrick Kennedy made a surprise appearance yesterday afternoon during the Yankees' series-clinching win over the Angels. Kennedy, who underwent surgery in May to repair an aneurysm in his pitching arm, pitched the 8th inning. Although he recorded one strike out, he also walked two and hit a batter. He escaped the inning, though, without giving up the lead. Not exactly a quality performance, but considering where he was a few months ago, his presence on the mound, however shaky, was a welcome--and unexpected-- sight. How unexpected? Well, I'll let John Sterling, the baritone radio voice of the Yankees, tell you, courtesy of It Is High.
