Tony Clark
2 September 2008
t it was his personal duty to berate most of the Arizona lineup, particularly Webb and former Padre Tony Clark. Both of these guys are pretty likeable guys, but this guy behind us razzed them unmercifully. This is, as always, the prerogative of any fan, and I don't fault the guy that, but it did seem absurd for him to call the leading NL Cy Young contender (at least when the game started) a "bum." Particularly when his team was floundering in last place, thirty games under .500, and their pitching ace Peavy had fewer than half of the "bum" Webb.

What might they mean in the second half? I’ll try and puzzle this out.
Tony Clark, who experienced a career resurgence the day he put on an Arizona Diamondbacks uniform back in 2005, hs returned to the cozy confines of Chase Field. Petco, where hitting a homer is as hard as hitting the lottery, wasn’t as kind to the aging Clark as Chase has been, so he’ll certainly improve on his 2008 line of .239/.374/.307. His 32:19 K:BB ratio, as well as hs 165-point difference between BA and OBP, will tell you his batting eye is fine, and some power should follow.
