After an eight-month rehab-fest, Randy Johnson defied all odds for a man his age Monday night, striking out seven batters in the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants.
The Big Unit, who is still kicking with 284 career victories, lasted five innings without allowing an earned run, walking four and serving up three hits and three unearned runs before the Giants rallied with a little help from the D'Backs relief corps.
The fact that man can still throw a baseball at any velocity after two back surgeries just blows my mind.

Gotta love that mullet. It was a shame the D-backs defense couldn't hold up to protect the lead the Unit left for them...it was an outstanding outing for his first time back...no question. If he's able to do six innings a start, I'd take that every time.
He looks like a chicken there, or a turkey... some sort of foul.
Turkey. That's definitely a gizzard.
Foul. Megs made a funny!
He could change his name to Gerry Atrick.
