Though they did just sweep Washington, so they are definitely a tough team.

I realize that but we still only have what? 8 interleague series? That would be about 12 games in NL parks. Seems odd for us already to have 5.

Its our good fortune. Some AL teams will have the bad luck to have to play a bunch of road NL games later in the year.
I'd rather have all of our road NL games out of the way early, because every team's hitters usually take a while to heat up. We've got 6 home interleague games in August, which is great because hopefully by then Hosmer and Moose will be fixed and we'll have all hands on deck to beat them while they are scrambling to find a useful DH. (edit: and 6 home interleague games in June! We will have only 3 road NL games after May is done!)

I never noticed our interleague advantage before. that is the ONLY thing good about our schedule, we got kinda screwed in every other way. (of our 4 division opponents, 3 of them have the extra home game against us, and of all the other series in the AL, tougher teams tend to have the extra home game against us)

Fun fact: to type an "ñ", hold down ALT, type 164, release ALT. Most of those funky foreign letters and common symbols have a similar alt code.
Others:
ALT 0169 = © (copyright)
ALT 0215 = × (multiply)
ALT 0247 = ÷ (divide)
ALT 0134 = † (dagger)
ALT 0135 = ‡ (double dagger)

This is Chris Getz's fourth season with the #Royals. They are 0-0 in games he's homered. We're in uncharted territory, guys. #Anarchy #Chaos

The Royals should sell a Hud T-Shirt that says "HUD" on the front and "DUH" on the back...

If I had to bet, I'll bet GB was at the Masters over the weekend in Augusta, then met up with the team in Atlanta for this series.

Was so pissed I had to work the night they did the Chen shirts. Hope they bring it back once more.

Seeing 6 pitches before you strikeout leads to base hits which lead to homeruns. /hud

These teams have been pretty evenly matched. Atlanta's fielding has been pretty piss poor, but this pitcher is pretty damn good. And he's getting calls low and on the corners.
alnorth
04-16-2013, 06:15 PM
Why not?
When someone reaches on an error, the official scorer keeps track of how many outs there "should have been". Once that mythical third out is recorded, then the inning "should have been over", and no runs from that point are earned. And of course, the guy who got on by error is never earned if he scores no matter what the outs are.
If you see a box score where a pitcher has a bunch of unearned runs, usually its because someone got on by error, he got 2 outs, then he got rocked.

I didn't know it worked that way. I thought the error had to be on the 3rd out for the rest of the runs to be unearned.
