A Defining Moment For LA Dodgers Chad Billingsley
The LA Dodgers have long touted Chad Billingsley as one of their best pitching prospects in ages and true enough he did have a break out year this season going 16-10 but the time has come for him to take the next step in his progression.
Tonight Chad Billingsley has a chance to erase game 2 of the playoffs by establishing that inside corner early and often. I'm not saying he has to throw at anybody's head but he's got to establish the inside corner and he's got to keep Phillies hitters off the plate.
For all the sissy reporters and baseball beat writers that are saying it's dangerous and it shouldn't be part of the game, I have this to say: Guys like Don Drysdale, Roger Clemens and now Brett Myers of the Phillies they make their living pitching inside and then freezing you on the outside corner... it's how they keep you honest and it's how you go from being a good pitcher to being a great pitcher.
The LA Dodgers Chad Billingsley has the stuff. The question now is does he has the balls to throw inside when he needs to and to protect his batters when called upon?
LA Dodgers fans will find out tonight and Chad Billingsley will find out that going 16-10 in the regular season means jack shit when you choke in the playoffs.
