And that was the last time anyone ever saw Anthony Bass…

Yes, he was pitching in a stadium only slightly more home run friendly than the new Yankee Stadium.

But he was also pitching batting practice. Single, double, home run, walk, single, home run, error, home run.

First thing you know, old Jed’s a millionaire, and young Anthony Bass has given up eight runs in the first inning.

This spring has been a microcosm of Bass’s career. A whole lot of promise. A whole lot of breaking promises.

The search for the number four and number five starters continues.
