8/12 SOX @ Indians

[fxkatt]

Nope. He let up 6 runs once. That was the most he let up that year.

 

His next highest was 4 (only once).

 

29 starts: 27 with 3 or less ERs allowed!

 

I believe 7 shutouts and 3 or 4 0-1 losses.

I lived in Geneseo from 1963-65. My Dad taught at the university.

 

What University?

[mvp 78]

Go get him

One more out E Rod. For god sakes. Get this out.

JBJ, don't lose your bat; no, that ain't it. JBJ, don't lose your glove; no, that ain't it. JBJ, don't lose those compromising pictures of John Henry; yup, that's it. Edited August 13, 2019 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

Pedro pitched 4 shutouts between May 12 and June 8 and lost the May 6 game by 0-1.

Wow. When my older one was in junior high and high school, I made the trip to the high school a lot. Football and wrestling mostly. Still go over for the wrestling tournament in January.

That is a good tournament. My son played baseball & basketball, no wrestling or football.

Same year Gibson recorded that 1.12 ERA. He also was never taken out of a game during an inning. Still boggles my mind that he lost 9 games with that season.

 

The next year they lowered the mound from 15 inches to 10.

 

That was the year of the pitcher. Yaz led the AL in hitting slightly over .300. Danny Cater finished 2nd at .297.

Ok JBj

[Tedballgame]

Wow. That didn't look like it was gone when he hit it.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

GRASSHOPPER goes yard!

1 run game! JBJ!

The 'juice' kicked in.

And I was just going to complain about JBJ

Mookie has been brutal tonight.

What University?

Presumably the State University of New York at Geneseo (not Geneseo, Illinois).

 

I grew up in Muscatine and occasionally stay with my sister who lives in Rock Island on the border with Moline. I ran the Quad Cities Marathon in 2013 but last fall ran only the QCM 5K (just shy of my 63rd birthday). Modern Woodman Park remains my favorite minor league stadium.

No two hopper there. He needs to go opposite field more, especially at home.

30 million a year doesn't get you much.

Yep. Yaz hit .301. Cater actually hit .290. IIRC, there were 4-5 guys in the NL over .300. I think it was the worst offensive season of the live ball era.

[Tedballgame]

I wonder why Toronto didn't trade Freddie Galvis at the deadline. They could have got something for him. Instead, they place him on waivers and lose him for nothing. He is having a good year for a SS.

The mound was about 6 feet high back then. Gibson could really bring it.

In Philly it gets you a .250BA and an .844OPS.

There's always tomorrow.

Hernandez is going to find himself back in Pawtucket if he doesn't start throwing strikes.

I’ll have something better to do then.

At least the River Bandits are playing actual home games now. Through the first 1/3 of the season, they had been in Modern Woodman for a total of 2 games due to the Mississippi River flood (it was in flood stage from late March until early June).
