…Andy Pettitte walks another hitter.
And with that in mind, the good people of Round Rock, TX did a decent enough job of eschewing self-gratification tonight, the Astros’ lefty issuing just one base on balls, 4 hits and two unearned runs in a tune-up start against the Triple-A Express, Houston winning 8-2. Round Rock starter Wandy Rodriguez struck out 7 over 5 no-hit innings.
“No one knows temptation more than Pettitte, who admits he’s made plenty of mistakes. But one mistake he feels blessed to have avoided is engaging in premarital sex. He shares how that decision has strengthened his Christian testimony and blessed his marriage. . . .
One of the keys to avoiding temptations is through establishing relationships with those who will act as accountability partners.”
So he’s made plenty of mistakes, but none of them before he was married. I wonder which professional athlete’s had more accountability partners: Petite or Wilt Chamberlain.
It’s like I was just telling Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Cameron Diaz and Leonardo — you can never have too many accountability partners.
