Cotham's Cube-(Dave Foster)

VANDERBILT'S CALEB COTHAM HAS BECOME ONE OF THE DORES MOST DEPENDABLE PITCHERS.

THE REDSHIRT FRESHMAN FROM MT. JULIET LEADING THE TEAM WITH SEVEN VICTORIES THIS SEASON.

FOX 17'S DAVE FOSTER SAYS CALEB'S FOUND A WAY TO PUT THE PIECES OF THE PITCHING PUZZLE TOGETHER!


CALEB COTHAM IS EARNING A REPUTATION AT VANDERBILT - AS ONE OF THE COMMODORE'S TOUGHEST GAMEDAY PITCHERS.

((Shea Robin:"He comes after every hitter. He throws every pitch for strikes and he doesn't give in."))

((Cotham:"It's always been a goal of mine, to be an SEC starter. That's why I came here, to strive to be the best."))

WHILE CALEB'S JUST LEARNING TO DOMINATE ON THE DIAMOND - HE'S ALREADY CONQUERED THE CUBE.

AS IN, THE RUBIK'S CUBIC!

((Cotham:"I said let me try it. I just sat down in my room last year and figured out a way to do it."))

IT'S A TRICK THAT MIGHT NOT HELP HIM ON THE HILL - BUT IT DOES HAVE HIS COACH BAFFLED.

((Corbin:"Maybe because of it's sharpness, you could learn to throw a breaking ball with it. I have no use for it."))

((Cotham:"I don't think he's that impressed. I don't really talk to him about it."))

INSTEAD, COTHAM LETS HIS FINGERS DO THE TALKING .. AND IT WAS TIME TO PUT THE VANDY HURLER TO THE TEST.

((Sped up ... ))

"There it is."

TWO AND HALF MINUTES ... PRETTY GOOD .. UNLESS ...

((Corbin: "He must be a simpleton because if he can do it that quick, that must be all he did for a certain amount of time."))

SO, THE SOLUTION TO THE PUZZLE OF CONTINUING TO IMPRESS CORBIN IS CLEAR .. MORE PITCHING, LESS CUBING. DAVE FOSTER .. FOX 17 SPORTS.

CALEB'S FASTEST TIME IS ONE MINUTE.

BUT HOW DOES HE STACK UP AGAINST THE WORLD RECORD HOLDER?

A JAPANESE MAN JUST CLAIMED THE TOP TIME EIGHT DAYS AGO.
TAKE A LOOK AT YU NAKAJIMA WORK HIS MAGIC!

((World Record))

ONLOOKERS GASP BECAUSE HE SOLVED THE PUZZLE IN 8-POINT-72 SECONDS!

CALEB'S GOOD - YU NAKAJIMA IS INCREDIBLE!

Should Metro pay the $3-4 million investors say they need to keep the Predators in Nashville?
