Re: 8/2/06: Dodgers @ Rojos Game Thread (Edwin and Royce in, Rich out)

Good lord, how can so many MLB umps be so incredibly incompetent? It's ridiculous.

Ump was squeezing zone early. Now decides to open it up.

Espn crawl said Giants Catcher Mike Matheny out for the year with a concussion? Do they put in a waiver claim for Larue?

How many of those umps that got fired a few years ago, got rehired? I know some did and some didnot. To me these umps, as a whole, look a lot younger than let's say 10 years ago.

Re: 8/2/06: Dodgers @ Rojos Game Thread (Edwin and Royce in, Rich out)

Not sure if this has been posted, but Sports Guy had all these stats on Papi today. Pretty ridiculous.

Then you have Big Papi, the best clutch hitter of his generation. The Elias Sports Bureau was nice enough to send these numbers along: If Ortiz has one more walk-off hit in 2006, he'll be the first baseball hitter to have six in a single season since the division era began in 1969. ... Since the start of 2005, he's come up 13 times with the chance for a game-ending plate appearance and made an out only once (and he ended up winning that game in the 12th inning). ... He has the most walk-off hits in any four-year span (12, and that doesn't include the three in the 2004 playoffs, which made him the only player in history with three game-ending postseason hits). ... Since he joined the Red Sox in 2003, he has 15 walk-off hits and the rest of the team has 19 total. ... Since Aug. 1, 2004, Ortiz has hit 21 home runs in 138 at-bats in Late-Inning Pressure Situations (no other player has more than 13). ... Dusty Baker has the most career walk-off hits (25, including the playoffs), but Ortiz is 10 behind. And just for the record, none of those stats include all the times when he tied a game or gave the Red Sox the lead in the seventh or eighth inning.
