Litsch celebrates birthday in style
Published 3/9/2008 by Chris Girandola at Major League Baseball News
Talk about having a good birthday. Blue Jays starter Jesse Litsch, who turned 23 years old on Saturday, began his day against the Phillies on Sunday by striking out 2007 National League Most Valuable Player Jimmy Rollins on six pitches. He then struck out Shane Victorino and ended the first inning by forcing Chase Utley into a weak groundout right back to him.
