Bartolo Colon won his 244th game last night and became the winningest Dominican-born pitcher ever.

He just keeps rolling (or jiggling) along. Good for him.

Sorry, kid. You've been Colónized.

When Bartolo faced Boston last (Wed) night, he did so having thrown more ABs against the current Red Sox mgr/coaching staff (63) more often than the night's lineup (62).
Alex Cora (19 ABs), 3B coach Carlos Fables (13), 1B coach Tom Goodwin (24), and former catcher Ramon Vazquez (7) had all faced Big Bart during their playing careers.
Most of the lineup probably had to hear about him from their grandfathers.

He was my boyhood idol.
