    That’s one way to get around the 3 batter rule. Just throw at the batter’s head. Dont hit him but do it twice and you get tossed.

    The visiting team by rule has won eight straight extra-inning games this year and is 55-41 (.573) with the Worst Rule In Baseball History in play. Still a small sample size problem, of course, but it's still bugging me.

    You gotta update your prediction!

    The lineup yesterday offered a tantalizing glimpse of what could be. And Fedde wasn't horrendous.

    Did our frigging moderator say yesterday that the team that won the 2019 World Series is 'cursed'?

    He's a DC Sports fan. We're conditioned to see the worst.

    One DC team won a title in 2018
    Another in 2019

    Strange shit has happened since. Cursed, I'm telling you. Cursed.

    And yes, Fedde looked better last night. I'll still feel better when he's no longer making starts. The rotation with Lester should be pretty good, particularly if Ross is back to his pre-TJ form.

    Soto protected by Bell and Schwarber is also a much better scenario.

    OK, so what cursed them? Booing Trump? Does Scherzer sell poisoned milk to school children?

    Joe West gets this call correct

    MLB umpire Joe West awarded $500,000 in defamation lawsuit against former catcher Paul Lo Duca

    But apparently the Cowboy thinks he’s better than everyone else does

    The plaintiff expressed a legitimate concern that, if Hall of Fame voters credited Lo Duca's false assertion regarding his integrity and character, he might not be elected for induction into the Hall of Fame for the same reasons as otherwise excellent players 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson, Pete Rose, and Barry Bonds had or have not been elected."
