  1. Well, they're clearly taking a lesson from the NHL.
  2. that format didn't come about until 1985. In 1984, both Championship Series were a 5 game series
  3. You have to touch all the bases to get the HR. Ventura had a HR turned into a 2B because his teammates mobbed him at 2nd after the winning run already crossed the plate. My guess is the guy would have to crawl around, or have the opposing team carry you, like that softball player last year. In the event of an injury on a home run, a pinch runner can take the place of the hitter and finish rounding the bases. This leads to a player being able to hit a home run, but not score a run, as the pr gets credit for that.
  4. I'm not sure what you're seeing. (or not seeing) HR Zambrano p 4 3 3 2 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 totals 40 11 15 11 6 5 16 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 2 0 0
  5. I checked Wikipedia to see if it listed any pitchers, it didn't, but I did learn this: Gary Ward (1980) and Daryle Ward (2004) became the first father/son combo to hit for the cycle.
  6. Except for that one earlier, where he hit it over the yellow line. Wasn't the runner on 1B? Runners. Plural. They were both on first.
  7. Sucks to be Cynosure, Ovechkin hurts Avery in the last minute, then advances.
  8. Maybe not in the future, but both of them have had one season of 50 or more homers.
  9. Among Aaron Miles' comparisons: Inanimate carbon rod The rod would have a higher OBP, and probably a higher AVG.
  10. Long fly ball that would be easily a homer without the wind, misplayed by the Left Fielder resulting in a long single for Lee due to the runners holding to tag up.
  11. Thursday, April 16 Wrigley Field | 1:20 PM CT STL Adam Wainwright, RHP (1-0, 1.74) @ CHC Sean Marshall, LHP (0-0, 0.00) Cardinals (7-3) Cubs (5-3) Scouting Report: Cardinals: The Redbirds' Opening Day starter still hasn't quite found the groove that made him so good in 2008 and most of 2007. However, he has an ERA under 2.00 even while he's been searching for his form. That tells you something about how good Wainwright is capable of being. He's had some struggles at Wrigley and against the Cubs, but there's no hesitation to give him the ball in the opener of the first series of the year between the two old rivals. Cubs: This will be Marshall's first start of the season. The lefty won the fifth starter's spot this spring, but struggled a little in two Cactus League outings after he was named. Marshall was the swingman last year, making seven starts and posting a 4.15 ERA and appearing in 27 games in relief and compiling a 3.42 ERA. He is 2-1 with a 3.38 ERA lifetime against the Cardinals.
  12. Did you know that by sliding, you stop your momentum?
  13. Anyone remember that game at Wrigely where he got hit and acted like he was dead? He was the guy who was terrified of lightning, wasn't he? Ran off the field of play like a little girl when that crazy lightning storm hit this past summer. And ripped off the necklace he was wearing in fear.
  14. The Reds thanks His highest level was High-A for the Rockies. The Reds took him in the Rule-5 Draft and then flipped him to us.
