    If you're gonna encourage guessing, put me down for Perry, Drysdale and Marichal as HOF'ers who surrendered HR's to Mets pitchers.

    Only a goddamn maniac could solve this quiz off the top of their heads without having to look anything up.

Newsday also had a Bart HR story without a final. Kind of reminded me of the Post, in its afternoon paper pre-Murdoch days, printing partial in-progress line scores. 2d inning hr from a California night game -- the ol' evening edition.

    Yeah, that's the word: "Rambling". You have the best words.

What's the quick backstory? here's the long backstory. i dunno yet if anyone officially denounced these numbnuts or not but this kinda stuff is a live wire right now. http://mysummerfamily.blogspot.com/2016/05/the-bad-apples.html I read half of that article and it's all over the place. I'm a zillion paragraphs in and I have only - maybe - a vague idea of what happened to the writer. And I'm not sure if the answer is even in that article or if I have to click on links or videos. Something about people being mad at her because of something connected to the Thor Gnome? I give up.

    This division sure doesn't read like it's supposed to be baseball's worst. Meanwhile, the Braves are on pace to break the '62 Mets record for ineptitude.

    d'Kong76 wrote: I find it hard to believe that professional guys, like Duda, can't slap a pitch to left field against the silly shift. That's why shifts work. That's also why there's so much luck in baseball. Because the action revolves around the batted ball, and the batters, by and large and to a great extent, can't control where the batted ball goes. It's tough enough just to hit the ball. And to the extent that some batters have some control over where the ball goes, it's not nearly the kind of control or precision that, for example, a basketball player needs to sink a free throw or a quarterback needs to complete a pass 30 yards downfield. Otherwise, there wouldn't be shifts. Ever.
