I like Peter Gammons. A lot. I really do. Though he desperately needs an editor, I check his site every day and still read his pieces. But this
one, forget the title, is a little over-the-top, especially with this line:
Yes. Clayton Kershaw is EXACTLY like Nelson Mandela. Who can forget the years that Kershaw was unfairly jailed because of the conviction of his beliefs. I get that it's Gammons' schtick to write that just because some dude can throw 95-100 mph, he's one of the truly greatest people who ever lived, but come on? Kershaw as Mandela? That's a fridge too far, Gammy.
