Yankees' ambidextrous prospect

This probably belongs on the modern forum, but I'm too lazy to go there. USA Today had a very small article on an ambidextrous pitcher on one of the Evil Empire's minor league clubs. It said that he used a 6-finger glove, as if that would just explain everything. Just wondering if anyone has seen a picture of him with his glove. I'm curious to see if he had it modified so it has a thumb on both ends or if he actually just flips it around when he pitches with the other hand? Anyone know? Anyone care? :roll:

No need to custom order a glove - Akadema makes about 120 of these a year.
