  1. JD is DH. Lindor ss Iglesias 2b Vientos 3b Alonso 1b Martinez dh Marte rf Taylor lf Alvarez c Bader cf
  2. I had somehow expected a larger Mets contingent at the game as we ran into others in town who were headed there - but in our section there were very few. That being said, the Torontonians were as polite as could be. In the second inning the dome opened so we got both closed and opened experiences. A couple of weeks ago the notion that Tylor Megill and Ryne Stanek would be players of the game would have seemed delusional but good for them. A nice ballpark, a lovely city - good museums, good food, super walkable.
  3. Ones without teams are too easy I got an 8. Frank Tanana 0.6 Ken Boyer 0.06 Duke Snider 0.3 Gaylord Perry 1 Dan Brouthers 0.1 Hank Greenburg 1 Hal Newhouser 2 Dale Murphy 1 Stan Musial 0.9 Newhouser was the last one I did and he wrecked my goal of not going over 1.
  4. Got a 38. I hate Seattle being in the mix. Hurts my score. MIL/NYM Kirk Nieuwenhuis 0.7 MIL/SEA Gorman Thomas 7 MIL/6+WAR Cecil Cooper 4 DET/NYM Dennis Ribant 0.07 DET/SEA Carlos Guillen 10 DET/6+WAR Hal Newhouser 1 30+SB/NYM Frank Taveras 1 30+SB/SEA Harold Reynolds 14 30+SB/6+WAR Willie Keeler 0.07
  5. I admire your Didi Gregorius as Schilling killed my score. Got an 82: Sal Maglie 0.08 Kent Bottenfield 0.1 Ray Lankford 1 Steve Finley 7 Schilling 58 Brandon Webb 4 Steve Yeager 7 Tim McCarver 4 Elston Howard 0.6
  6. Going to the game next Monday. The missus, the son and his girlfriend attending. Our thing now is to travel to a Mets game to see a home team we’ve not seen before. Also seeing something at the Toronto Film Festival since we’re there.
  7. 18 for me: Felix Millan 5 Darrell Evans 3 Tommie Aaron 1 Gil Hodges 1 Brett Butler 5 Jim Gilliam 0.5 Warren Spahn 2 Bill Terry 0.9 Bill Dickey 0.5
  8. Well, I don't do it every day (unlike Wordle) and I don't post if I haven't gotten them all. I do find the ones where you don't have to deal with 9 team combinations much easier -- remembering a catcher and pitcher (in this case) was pretty easy and the Cubs aren't the Rays or some team I haven't paid much attention to. I'm older than most here so can remember players from the '60's more easily (the likes of Johnny Blanchard) and have been in a fantasy league since 1999 so I've cared about a host of players that shouldn't be cared about (Miguel Olivo for example).
  9. Got a 7 with only one over 1: Jose Vizcaino 0.2; Johnnie Blanchard 0.7; Armando Benitez 0.1 Todd Walker 0.6; Bobbiy Estalella 0.7; John Thomson 0.06 Edwin Jackson 4; Miguel Olivo 0.5; Billy Koch 0.3 Edwin Jackson (next-to-last one I did) got me over my dream score of under 1 for all.
  10. The first baseball game I ever went to was on August 16, 1964. The Mets beat the Phillies 12-4. Galen Cisco pitched a complete game and Bobby Klaus had 4 hits -- surely the best game of his career (.208 lifetime average). In any event, going tonight to commemorate the 60th anniversary of that game. I predict the Mets will win 12-4.
  11. Pulled a 8 today, only using pitchers: NYM/NYY Hal Reniff 0.1 NYY/TOR Scott Schoenweis 0.1 NYM/-3.00ERA Skip Lockwood 0.2 LAA/NYY Rudy May 0.3 LAA/TOR Kelvim Escobar 1 LAA/-3.00ERA Dean Chance 2 LAD/NYY Steve Howe 2 LAD/TOR Dave Stewart 2 LAD/-3.00ERA Darren Dreifort 0.1
  12. The ones with no teams are pretty easy. I got a 28: Joe Medwick 0.09/Gary Sheffield 3/John Olerud 0.4 Dan Brouthers 0.05/Mel Ott 4/Wade Boggs 6 Larry Walker 3/Rafael Palmeiro 10/Juan Lagares 1
  13. They direct you to Audacy I believe.
  14. I was in Maine during the Met-Yankee series and wanted to listen to the game on Audacy. I heard the pre-game show and then an announcement that since I was outside of the listening area I wasn't permitted to listen to the game. Fine, didn't know that was a thing. Then, two weeks ago I was walking around Brooklyn during a day game and wanted to check in on the game. Once more I got that same announcement. Maybe new ownership can fix that.
  15. Now its listed as Vientos out; Iglesias to third; McNeil to second; Gamel to right.
  16. Got an 8: Lefty Grove 0.6/Bartolo Colon 2/Rube Waddell 0.6 Rick Reuschel 0.4/Bob Turley 0.3/Dazzy Vance 0.2 Sad Sam Jones 0.2/Dennis Eckersley 1/Jim Bunning 2
  17. I did come up with 9 Mets. Hadn't seen Fman's post. Got a 21. HOU/NYY Octavio Dotel 0.9 HOU/OF Roger Cedeno 0.3 HOU/C Alex Trevino 0.3 CIN/NYY Jay Bruce 3 CIN/OF George Foster 4 CIN/C Devin Mesoraco 5 SD/NYY Gary Sheffield 2 SD/OF Jason Bay 0.3 SD/C Mike Piazza 4
  18. I was in Chicago about 5 or 6 years ago and took in a White Sox game (they lost to the Red Sox). Starting around May of this year I started getting regular emails from them letting me know there are seats available. So, I guess there are seats available.
  19. So that would leave Ottavino as the only one who has been in the bullpen all year.
  20. A 15: PHI/SD Benito Santiago 4 PHI/HOU Robin Roberts 1 PHI/20WINS Eppa Rixey 0.6 NYM/SD Heath Bell 1 NYM/HOU Bob Aspromonte 0.3 NYM/20WIBS Frank Viola 4 3.00/SD Goose Gossage 2 3.00/HOU Don Wilson 1 3.00/20 WINS 3-Finget Brown 0.4
  21. Got a 21 today: LAD/BOS Reggie Smith 3 LAD/ROY Steve Howe 2 LAD/300HR Ron Cey 2 MVP/BOS Mo Vaughn 6 MVP/ROY Johnny Bench 1 MVP/300HR Jimmie Foxx 0.6 GG/BOS Fred Lynn 4 GG/ROY Carlos Beltran 1 GG/300HR Jim Edmonds 2
  22. Ron and Gary commute from Connecticut.
  23. A 17 as well! SEA/SF Jeffrey Leonard 3 SEA/P Jeff Nelson 1 SEA/C Kenji Johjima 3 ATL/SF Darrell Evans 3 ATL/P Johnny Sain 2 ATL/C Del Crandall 2 WAS/SF Andy McGaffigan 0.3 WAS/P Dan Schatzeder 0.4 WAS/C Mike Fitzgerald 2
  24. Wasn't McNeil the only one who did get a hit off this guy last week?
  25. Got a 10 today: SF/COL Jeffrey Hammonds 0.7 SF/BAL Armando Benitez 5 (half my score) SF/LF Hector Cruz 0.03 NYM/COL Benny Agbayani 1 NYM/BAL Randy Milligan 0.3 NYM/LF Jeff Conine 0.07 RF/COL Michael Cuddyer 2 RF/BAL Boog Powell 0.5 RF/LF Art Shamsky 0.03
