Anybody find anyone that can challenge Jumbo in the sumo ring? Posted on Apr 10, 2004 at 1:06 PM Comments What did David Wells weigh in at during his chubbiest period? I'd put him north of 250 at a guess. Posted by: John Y. at April 10, 2004 02:40 PM No other pitcher has been listed over 265 according to Sean Lahman's db. Wells is now at 230 and is listed at 225 by Lahman. Then again, Terry "Big Tub of Goo" Forster was listed at 210 for his entire career. Wells, Forster, Rich Garces, Tim Stoddard, Hideki Irabu, Rod Beck, and a few others probably approached 300 in reality but never updated their official numbers.

There is no indication that it was provoked. Fortunately for the pudgy star crossed hurler, the woman, whom he had never met before, refused to press charges. If she had, that may have been the end of Irabu's career. Instead, she asked for an apology. However, Irabu gave a different description of the incident to team officials, which lead them to believe that an apology wasn't necessary. Upon hearing this, the woman went to Chunichi Sports, who wrote it up. The team then issued a written apology. They also fined Irabu $2900 and reprimanded him. "I don't want to make a big deal of this," said the unnamed woman. "I don't want any money, either," she told reporters, describing her feelings as a bad incident now being behind her.

Marc Valdes was credited with the victory, but he was screwed, blued and tattooed for five runs, four earned, on six hits in four innings in easily his worst outing of the spring. Irabu was fighting uphill from the get go, as rightfielder Kosuke Fukudome scorched a double into the leftfield corner to to open the game. Two outs later, Irabu ran a fifth pitch curve ball up to the plate and Ochoa, who was sporting a new diamond stud earring given to him by his wife Susie, waited on it then lowered the boom, burying a rocket deep into the leftfield seats near the foul pole for a quick 2-0 Dragons lead. Valdes was victimized by some sloppy defense, though, in coughing that advantage up in the bottom of the frame, as second baseman Makoto Imoaka got aboard on a leadoff groundball error by third baseman Kazuyoshi Tatsunami. Centerfielder Norihiro Akahoshi walked. Both runners were advanced on a sac bunt. Rightfielder Osamu Hamanaka singled to left to convert them and knot it at 2-2. Tigers manager Senichi Hoshino had to be well chuffed at that, as they not only exploited their opportunity, but Hamanaka contines to develop with the bat.
