Oak Lawn, the earth from which Cingrani sprang, has maybe my favorite list of famous natives:

Dwyane Wade, Rob Mackowiak, Pat Sajak, Kevin Cronin, Michael Flatley, and Kanye West. Oh, and also Tony Cingrani.

I’m aghast that Michael Flatley is American.

Nice interview – many items I’ve also wondered about as a tony c owner! – Looking at last night’s brooks baseball line, odd to see such a drop in curve/slider use though?
