  1. According to gameday Bruce should have been struck out by that 1-2 slider
  2. Outfield assists usually happen because teams will run on poor defenders a lot more often. Interesting theory but I'd need to see some more evidence, just a quick check and Vladimir Guerrero for example was in the top 4 in his league in assists for basically 10 straight years despite his reputation. Ichiro is similar, top 5 in the league in RF assists for most of the 2000s.
  3. Modern award did not exist until 1931. Previously it was not awarded every season and there was a rule that a player could not win it more than once. He did lead his league in WAR 10 times
  4. Yup, he was 40 years old, had an ok April, fell apart in May, but famously had a 3 HR game for numbers 712, 713 and 714 and retired a week later.
  5. 1 game above .500 with a -15 run differential after this game. I'll take it
  6. Doesn't really matter if it is a HR or 2B, the run has to score anyways and it is unlikely the runner at 2nd would have made an out on the bases
  7. Never, not even 1 inning, although I think he participated in some of the 5 man infield things, but still officially as the LF
  8. yuck, lets get a shopvac next time and leave the hoover in the closet
  9. The second one bounced off of Bandy's leg. Either way it is lazy technique to try to backhand rather than block. Catching 101 Spiked 95mph fastballs are what they are. It is not easy so no, not catching 101. The fundamental part is that when runners are on base you do not try to backhand pitches, you block them. Maybe the chance of blocking is only 5%, but it is still better than a backhand attempt on a spiked fastball.
  10. The second one bounced off of Bandy's leg. Either way it is lazy technique to try to backhand rather than block. Catching 101
  11. Hard on fastballs that hit before the plate. Ha. Not if you block it with your chest instead of going for a backhand
  12. Did Barnes even warm up? Pina out potentially costs us the game, Bandy is trying to play 1st base back there with a back hand scoop attempt
  13. After the walk you can go get him, but I think CC's rationale is that a young pitcher does not have enough grit to pitch to the top of the order.
