Is Baseball Orel Hershiser A Poker Phenom?
Orel Hershiser, winner of the 1988 Cy Young and the World Series MVP, who in that year set a major league record with 59 consecutive scoreless innings pitched, now has another record to boast about. This one, however, is in poker. As reported in the Las Vegas Sun, Hershiser got to the quarterfinals of the National Heads-Up Poker Championship, and he did this by defeating three superstars in poker: Ted Forrest, Allen Cunningham, and Freddy Deeb. Hershiser takes home a cool $75,000 for making it as far as he did in the tournament.
Hey Orel – after this amazing poker-playing accomplishment, would you ever be so kind as to give PokerMoments an interview? Just a few questions for my fans, many of which are baseball enthusiasts. Pleeeeeese
