  1. 'His/her' also covers male and female pets who also may be watching the game.
  2. Btw, it's a good idea to employ 'his/her' to avoid gender conflict. And Kimmi may be monitoring this thread.
  3. Not sure 'some' will be enough. Score many runs today. Better to be safe than sorry.
  4. Kudos to Richards for at least keeping his pitch count low enough to give the BP a rest. Kudos to the offense for providing double-digit runs.
  5. It appears at this point of the season, Cora better have someone ready for the 6th inning. I don't see a whole bunch of quality starts in our future.
  6. Nice play by X-man. Saved Richards' bacon, who was fooling no one on the O's that inning.
  7. I hate any pitch that has the word 'knuckle' in its name.
  8. Back in 2019 I used to call him MC Hammer, as in "you can't touch this."
  9. Chavis is 0-2. 0-1 at the plate. 0-1 in the field.
  10. There were so many great players during Dom's era of playing that, unfortunately, very good players like Dom are pretty much forgotten today. It's a good thing that he's getting some recognition today on this thread.
  11. I just hope all the good things I've been posting about Richards doesn't come back to haunt me.
  12. Btw, Bell, seeing as you're a SOX fan, you should know this shite, instead of portraying the devil's advocate.
  13. Check out his history with the Jimmy Fund and his secret trips to Boston hospital to visit kids suffering with cancer. And how on one visit a young boy wouldn't let go of his hand, so Ted asked the nurse if he could borrow a cot and he spent the night with the youngster. So, yeah, compared to Joe D., Ted was a prince.
  14. Btw, Joe D was one of the cheapest bastards who ever lived. Never tipped, never picked up the tab at restaurants, and he never did anything for free. Hell, the Yankems had to pay him to appear in their old timers' games. And in his 9 month marriage to Marilyn he treated her like crap. He wasn't a nice guy.
  15. Williams was obsessed with fishing; Joe was obsessed with Marilyn until the day he died.
  16. Dom's 11 year totals were 1046 runs scored, a .298BA, a .383 OBP, and an .802 OPS.
  17. In 1949 Dom had a 34 game hitting streak.
  18. Of course, Joe got all the press, but brother Dom was a very good ballplayer and many of his contemporaries claimed he was a better defensive CF than Joe.
  19. This is true. I read that the trade talks went south when the SOX decided they also wanted Berra as part of the deal. I'm not sure the SOX were really serious about trading Williams.
