Re: MLB 2018
The first triple play in the majors since 1912 where the batter was not one of the outs.

Cole Hamels has been a fine acquisition.

Send them clips of things that people like Ty Cobb said about Babe Ruth ruining the game by hitting home runs rather than scratching out a run at a time.

Re: MLB 2018
The game and players Epstein describes seem completely alien from our present. There were plenty of times I'd stop and think that there's no way that could happen. Not now, anyway. I'm thinking, once my current tub book is done, I'm gonna re-read Epstein.BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑21 Aug 2018, 10:55amI read it twice I enjoyed it so much.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑21 Aug 2018, 10:41amIf you haven't read this, you gotta.

It’s weird that so many if those players seem to be the cranky old men now.

Re: MLB 2018
I was in Binghampton a few days ago and caught a Rumble Ponies game. Tim Tebow did not play, though the bar across the street had a "Free Pizza for Tebow" banner.
Our friend led the seventh inning stretch and won the "finish the song-line" contest — sadly, he didn't realize he was standing behind the pole that holds up the netting the entire time so was denied screentime on the jumbotron.
I am now also a big fan of pitch clocks.
