    I went with Sport World for the interesting (and wrong) premise. It reminded me of the days when the Mets were still trying to sell their fans on nostalgia (old guys/ old NY teams) when there weren't any exciting young guys (except Ron Hunt) emerging. Speaking of that, were there any voting-worthy covers of Ron Hunt? Later

    Fonzie's deserved compliment. (But how you can be most underrated? If you're the most, then you've been rated.) Later

    I was hoping for the reverse jinx. Look at what they've done since I posted that. Its working. Later

    As long as those two keep hitting the way they are, I'm not too concerned about who they are keeping on the bench. Later

    =dgwphotography post_id=7925 time=1555971973 user_id=78] My best guess is that the Harrelson cover was shot during the top of the ninth inning on August 22. That's Bobby Tolan running to first, and Rose was just out, scored 5-6 in the scorebook. This isn't the only time that Rose was out on an FC at second in that series, but it is the only time that there was a runner ahead of him at third base, which explains Buddy's looking toward third.

    I just want the Mets to bring their game to the game. Later

Their 5.61 is more than half a run in back of the 1962 team's 5.04 There are some records I hoped would never be broken. That was one of them. I fear this thread is going to be a chilling read all year. Later

    =bmfc1 post_id=7845 time=1555880076 user_id=73] That was an astonishingly bad call. Even Angel Hernandez would not have made that call.

The problem is that since he has opted out, the MFYs have two days to release him or trade him, and I doubt they'd release him knowing the Mets might sign him and then he'd make them look foolish by pitching well.

    In Joe Garagiola's book Baseball is a Funny Game, he told the story of a pre-game batting practice in which Early Wynn's 18 year old son hit a home run off him. On the next pitch, Wynn knocked him down with a high inside fastball. Famous "head hunter" Don Drysdale threw at Frank Robinson only twice. Both times, Robinson got back up and hit home runs. Drysdale never threw at him again. Both sides have been "retaliating" for years. If there is no intention to harm, I don't think something like bat flipping should legislated out of the game. Later

Then the folks across town who wear those pinstriped uniforms without their names on the back should strip down to their shorts or get new uniforms. And so should the fans who wear those jerseys with a number 2 on the back. Later

    I'm for the the rule that states that if a pitcher throws a shard of a shattered bat at the hitter, he is banned for life. Let's call it the, um, Fat Coward in Pinstripes Rule. Later

    They've had a lot of rainouts and even their makeup doubleheaders have been rained out. They will probably be playing a lot of double headers later in the year, so we may see some St. Lucie pitchers brought up to AA to fill in for some tired arms. It will be a good test for the organization's pitching depth. Later

    =whippoorwill post_id=7491 time=1555504535 user_id=79] I wonder what all that means? The Jay Hook cover on the obscure magazine for me! Though I'd love to know what Gil's secret plans were, and how they worked out

    People at work have talked about this (and quoted it) often, but I've never seen it. Starting to think I will. Later
