Yeah, it's a dogfight for last right now. The Tigers have the edge, and I think they will pull it out. I just hope there is a great pick in their future as a result.

Nats blow 9th inning lead (Jersey on Jersey crime).
And we have a tie at the top of the AL Central.

Lots of issues with the original field. I think the biggest one is that the field is not level.93henfan wrote:Correction on my first post. They're building a whole new field for this about 150 yards beyond left field of the current field of dreams. Just saw the graphic on Around the Horn.
Kind of lame

The difference? The new ball.
Everytime I hear an announcer give a stat related to home runs I boil inside. It's a joke. HR stats are meaningless when comparing to the past.

Baseball is a game of statistics...some are interesting...
With last nights win over Cincinnati, the Seattle Mariners achieved a rather interesting status.
From 1995 to last night, the Mariners record is 1995 wins...2019 loses...
Doesn’t mean much, but it is interesting...

Astros looking scary good. They lay the very occasional steaming turd, but they should be favored to get to the WS and beat either LA or ATL.

But at least you are comparing stats from the same year. Comparing stats from this year to other years is pointless.
