Joba's 1st start a bust as Blue Jays top Yanks 9-3
Published 6/4/2008 by Jay Cohen, AP Sports Writer at Boston.com -- Baseball News
Joba Chamberlain struggled with his control, walked off the mound in the third inning and threw his glove in the dugout. His first major league start was a memorable one, all right. Just not for the reasons he'd hoped.
