The best thing ever to happen to Boston Red Sox pitcher Clay Buchholz was not throwing a no-hitter last year as a rookie, but the fact that he is dating Penthouse Pet Erica Ellyson according to On 205th.

Rumor has it, based on something said on The Howard Stern Show, that Buchholz is dating Penthouse Pet of the Year Erica Ellyson. Of course, as With Leather points out after listening to the show, there was no mention of the Red Sox, so this may be a complete fabrication, which disappoints me and removes Clay Buchholz from favored status, but in no way stops me from posting pictures of said Pet of the Year.

Erica truly has a nastier curve than Clay.  I think it’s safe to say that Mr. Buchholz will experience a sophomore slump for sure this season.
