Lackey could pitch Game 7?

Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim of Southern California of the United States of America manager Mike Scioscia said that he would consider starting loudmouth John Lackey in Game 7 on three days rest.

“If there is an opportunity to look at bringing a guy like John back, it’s something we would certainly consider,” Scioscia said. “We have talked about a lot of different scenarios. I think we’re going to let this thing unfold a little bit and see how the weekend goes.”

It doesn’t mean it’s certain, but you know Lackey would be up for it if given the chance. He pitched Game 7 of the 2002 World Series on three days rest as a rookie and the Angels won it all.

Lackey threw a fit the other night when he was pulled with two outs and the bases loaded. He could be seen saying to Scioscia, ‘”this is mine! Are you shitting me? This is mine!” He then walked into the tunnel when the bullpen promptly gave up several blasts and let the Yankees take the lead. The Angels came back to win anyway, so who cares?
