Joba Chamberlain hasn’t thrown a pitch in a decade — but he still has some heat left for a longtime Red Sox nemesis.
During a recent appearance on “The Eddie Mata Show,” the former Yankees flamethrower didn’t hesitate when asked which player he disliked most during his 10-year career.
“Kevin Youkilis,” Chamberlain replied, without blinking.
Chamberlain, 40, burst onto the scene with the Yankees in 2007, overwhelming hitters with a 100 mph fastball and a 0.38 ERA in 19 games.
That breakout run came with drama — specifically, with the then–Red Sox first baseman.
The right-hander fired two fastballs over Youkilis’ head on Aug. 30, 2007, earning an ejection, a $1,000 fine and a two-game suspension over his “inappropriate actions.”
