Kruk Pays For Not Reading Moneyball

John "Svelte" Kruk wondered last Sunday why the Marlins allowed an "injured pitcher" to limp on the field and pitch.

Kruk found himself apologizing for not knowing that Jim Mecir has club feet.


Kruk, apparently unaware that Mecir was born with club feet and walks with a slight limp, questioned the Marlins for bringing in what appeared to him to be an injured pitcher.

Mecir, who gave up five runs in Sunday's loss to the Padres, is not injured.
