    Every time I see this subject line I zoom to 'Built this City' which was probably one of the worst mega popular songs of it's decade.

    Putting a micro speaker in the pitchers cap that only the manager and pitcher coach can access (like a quarterback?) would eliminate most strictly pitching- messages that need to be 'conveyed.' If a strategic mound visit is needed, the manager or coach doesn't need to be present, pitcher can say something like, "Skip says were doing A & B unless C happens then do D." Probably a pipe dream.

    Here's a baseball phrase I'm definitely aware that's gone missing because I miss it : balls hit in the gap between two outfielders used to be referred to as going "up the alley". I think we still hear 'in the alley' quite frequently, maybe I'm mistaken.

    I don't see "no pepper" written on the walls of the grandstand any more. Some (fan) stranger I was talking to many years ago told me that 'no pepper games' used to be on the walls at stadiums because if a fan got hurt as the result of a pepper game the stadium (team) would be liable because pepper games didn't fall under the disclaimer language (incidental to the game of baseball) which was common on the back of ticket stubs -- which isn't the case anymore so they don't post it. No idea if he was right, talking out of his ass or why I even remember him. (Non-baseball side note... I was telling my wife a few weeks ago when we were waiting on a subway platform there used to be stenciled signs on the floor that said 'no spitting' or such. She didn't believe me.)

    He looked pretty good on Koosnight. Hope everything works out for him and he's ready and roaring to go next season.

    Frayed Knot wrote: McCarver's line was that Gooden's curve was so good that his Uncle Charley should be called Lord Charles instead. Sounds reasonable, but I don't remember the big explanation for years and years. I think it just became The Lord Charles, but my senility is moving along...

    A: A 55-footer. Q: What's Javy's favorite pitch to flail at and miss?
  9. kcmets
    Anyone still call the curveball the "Uncle Charlie?" I feel like that was a thing when I was a kid. I think McCarver called a big curve Lord Charles, I don't recall the uncle thing.

    You know things are not going well if you're booed at a charity event. We shall see.

    Maybe Baez should put out a Jefferies-esque full page New York Times ad and atone for some of his cluelessness both on and off the field.

    How Jerry Koosman can invoke a thought about old men shouting at clouds makes no sense to me. I doubt he raises his voice often, and certainly not towards the sky.

    I had the post game on when Javy was up. I just sat there wide eyed thinking shut the fuck up man while you still can. I have nothing against him or his thought process but there will be plenty who will jump all over it. And an off day tomorrow. The Post and Snooze back page designers probably ejaculated on themselves.

    I don't know why, but I thought this was a day game and that I even thought I remembered that that the number ceremony started at 12:45. I'm losing it, and glad I didn't jump on a train which I considered early this morning.

    Thanks, I was half afraid to ask and that it's already there and it flew under the radar and I'd feel like an utter moe-ronnn.
