Wow, I'd forgotten all about Manon Rhéaume. How is that possible? Wasn't there a second female goalie around the same time?

Detroit's Doug Fister sets and American League record with nine strikeouts in a row in today's game against the Royals.

Or, if you prefer, Dog Fister.

Can anyone see or hear Doug Fister's name without thinking, "The phabulous pitcher with the phunny name?"

Any time I see Fister's name, I remember he was traded (in part) for Furbush.
