Roy Oswalt: The Underappreciated Ace of the 2000s
Roy Oswalt was one of the best pitchers of his era, but rarely gets the recognition he deserves. A workhorse, he placed in the top 5 of the Cy Young voting five times in his career, and helped lead the Houston Astros to their first ever World Series appearance.

Ryan Howard Gets Ejected, Roy Oswalt Comes in to Play Left Field
In a 2010 regular season extra innings game, Ryan Howard was ejected by the 3rd base umpire Scott Barry. The Phillies had already used all of their bench players, so they had to play a pitcher in the field. Left fielder Raul Ibanez switched to first base, and the Phillies brought in pitcher Roy Oswalt to play left field. This was all against Oswalt's former team, the Astros, who had traded him to the Phillies less than a month before. I do not own this clip.

One cold rainy night in November they sat, three listened to one Gazing intently and silent, as ones riveting story rolled on Gaining in pace and momentum, the tale abruptly ceased As five and six entered and eagerly took up their seats, and eagerly took up their seats. A round of beers later, two and three joined in And started reminiscing as seven downed his gin It didn't take long, one carried on and it quickly resumed its pace Things were getting lively, when in walked number eight when in walked number eight. Silence fell upon the group, events started to change And seven leapt up out of his seat, and hopelessly tried to explain "I've only just got here", well that much was true, but he didn't attempt to convey that one had been waiting here only for him, while eight was locked out in the rain, while eight was locked out in the rain! Things could progress in several ways, I couldn't decide which one I'd back But the one that won, couldn't have done, it was the one that trailed in last A sound from the door, introduced number four And ones eyes couldn't comprehend Two and three shared a whisper and stared At the fate befalling their friend Four glared at eight with contempt and hate As seven again rose to his feet Five grabbed an arm, number four was alarmed And six simply started to weep. Three and two made excuses and flew For the door that four left ajar And no one saw one reaching out
