    LINCOLN, Neb. – New York Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain was arrested for allegedly driving under the influence, speeding and having an open container of alcohol in his vehicle.

    Nebraska State Patrol spokeswoman Deborah Collins said Chamberlain was stopped for speeding on U.S. 77 near his hometown of Lincoln at about 1 a.m. Saturday.

    Collins said Chamberlain was taken to the Cornhusker Place Detox in Lincoln, which she said is the normal protocol.

    Chamberlain was lodged at the center on charges of driving under the influence, having an open container of alcohol and speeding.

    Collins said the county attorney likely would file formal charges Monday.

    An e-mail sent to Chamberlain's agent Saturday was not immediately returned.

    Joba now has another reason to throw at Kevin Youkilis next year.

    INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY! INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY!

    Just because a man starts swerving one the road and drives a little bit on the sidewalk does not mean he's drunk. It just means, um, um, um, that he's a pioneer! Yeah!

    Joba couldn't have called a cab? Didn't have a friend with him? How fucking stupid is this guy?

    To be fair, his friend was Rivera and in a pressure situation he choked.

    Again.
