Made it very difficult to go to school that next day. Thought for SURE, after that 3 run HR by Brett (320 feet maybe) in the top of the 8th, the Royals were going to the WS.

Has anyone heard any rumors about MJ Melendez being in Matheny's doghouse? Read a couple things where people were wondering why he wasn't in the line up for a couple of games. No one said it was because he was in the doghouse but no one knew why?

Cardinals fans like to do it with Game 6 in 1985 (but don't want to talk about a certain Royals baserunner being called out at second earlier in the game, when replay showed him clearly safe, and the next batter hit a single to RF that surely would have scored him).

Looking at the WPAs for that game. Orta being safe increases our odds from 20% to 33%. His force out dropped them 18%. So mathematically, it was more devastating. The thing that did them in was the Passed ball by Porter that moved Balboni and Sundberg into scoring pos. Most BFIBs are dumb people tho so they always stare blankly when you inform them of the Orta outcome |

Plus, if a blown call at first to lead off an inning results in your stud closer giving up a hit to the worst 0-2 hitter in baseball, or dropping a pop foul, or having a passed ball, then you ain't a champion anyway.

I think he's saying he's on par with Beltran, seeing as Beltran was more recent. He's not saying anything about Bo.

TLDR: if the BFIBs ever want to see what the 85 WS trophy looks like they can drive out to the K and see it in person |

So my post was only in reference to there has been another very good athlete since Bo. I’d say BWJ is more similar in athletic nature to Beltran than the once in my lifetime Uber athlete that is Bo Jackson. On a side note, Bo would spend a significant amount of time signing autographs by the players parking lot after games back in the day at the peak of his stardom. I still have an autographed ball and card. He would hang around, tugging his son around with, signing while many other players wouldn’t sign at all or quickly sign for one or two people and be on their way. Now as an adult, I appreciate that even more about Bo. Great athlete and person. |
