Mark McLemore

I was reading a recap of the Astros-Padres 18-11 slugfest today, when I was confused to see that Mark McLemore gave up a double in the second inning. Angels', Indians', Astros', Orioles' Rangers', Mariners' and A's' fans might remember McLemore as a "supersub" in the mold of Jeff Reboulet and Tim Hulett.

This isn't the same McLemore. I can tell because he's a pitcher and he's a white dude. Of all the Steve Smith/Ja[y]son Williams/Adrian Peterson-type names, who could have figured there would be two Mark McLemores? Also, does this McLemore pronounce his last name like the original (Mack-leh-more), or like Joe Morgan used to butcher the original (Mick-ell-more)?

I saw the same thing and was quite confused, until I saw he was a pitcher and figured he couldn't be the same Mc.

Mark McLemore... such good memories of him playing second base with Cal at short in the early years of Camden Yards.

Jeff Reboulet is my idol.

You couldn't grow half the moustache Reboulet sported.
