Just in case anyone in the area is interested, a co-worker forwarded me this email today with a coupon code for half-price Cubs/Braves tickets in Atlanta on the above dates.
What was with the Cubs fans booing when Carpenter left the game? It sounded like slightly more cheers than boos, but still I think booing a pitcher in that situation is a little uncalled for, especially when he has pitched a decent game.
I don't think there is a curfew for National League games. FWIW, they just said on the radio that 1am is the latest an inning can begin. That can't be right. The Rockies and Padres(?) game earlier this year was being played at like 2 in the morning their time wasn't it?? I think so... do they abide by city curfews?
I wonder what would happen if ESPN named the All-Time switch hitting team from Titletown? Something that amazing would have me glued to my TV for weeks.
