Still, 8 earned by Jaret Wright can’t be good.

I guess that pep talk did the trick.

Top 3rd at Yankee Stadium

Yankees 13, Devil Rays 0

Nothing like Lou’s Crew to help cure the ills a little bit.

So, how big of a woody does Steinbrenner get when his “highest paid team in baseball” beats up the lowest paid team in baseball by scoring 13 runs in an inning?

Ah, didn’t know that, it makes sense with only 43 AB. Thanks.

OBP can be lower than BA due to the inclusion of Sacrifice Flies in the divided-by line for OBP. Given the small sample size, Ichiro obviously has a few more Sac Flies than he does walks (1) in bases-loaded situations, which is why his BA is higher than his OBP.

# 50:

I noticed that, too. Either the .535 and .522 are mixed up, or its what you said. The numbers are copied and pasted directly from Yahoo though.

Re: Toronto’s pitchers — that’s got to be the funniest box scores I’ve ever seen.

So, forget Womack, Brown, etc: if NY continues on this path, what’s the over/under for Torre’s job? Not that he’d be unemployed for long….

#43.

“Bases Loaded .535/.522/.791″

Did you mean a .622 OBP?

#45.

That’s awesome.

PLEASE don’t let Georgie Porgie figure out that Womack is code for “Suck”. He’s on my Hacking MASS team, I need every one of those hopeless PAs.
