XX Sports Radio: Kevin Towers interview (MP3) with Darren Smith Kevin Towers is a huge University of Oregon fan. He couldn't go to the game because he was in a meeting with Moorad and Garfinkel. Towers thinks that you can add 3/4's of a run onto a pitcher's ERA when they go from the NL to the AL. Towers would like for the AL to do away with the Designated Hitter. He would rather put money into pitching...
