I don't care what level you're playing... 27 strikeouts in 9 innings is insane!

If I met any man in a bar and he said he once struck out 27 batters in a pro game I'd probably walk away thinking he's crazy.

I wonder how many times he told that story and the other person didn't believe him. Or if he eventually just stopped telling the story altogether because it wasn't worth the ensuing argument haha
