    He must have been wrong about the ERA then though, right? I mean 19 homers in 49 innings would come to a 3.48 ERA even if they were all solo shots and he never gave up any other runs.

    Correct, Colorado Springs stats are nuts. But also Thom was wrong if he said 19 HRs, he's allowed 7.

    Maybe some of them were unearned runs (occurring after an error which should have been the third out of an inning).

    Or maybe...I don't know...THom was wrong. It's not that that has never happened.

    Schebler hits into the teeth of the shift for the second out.

    If the scorecards are becoming obsolete, then stop saying who it was hit to (G-6) and start naming the hole it was hit to. Divide the infield up with RF line to 45 feet, and so on. Then note the player that fielded it at that point. So a grounder into the 2 hole that the shortstop fields would be noted as G(2)6-1. I'd even suggest breaking the infield up into 5 wedges that includes a wedge going up the middle.

    Scorekeeping rant:

    I think the second infielder on the right should be designated the second baseman, regardless of who he actually is. The infield should be 3B-SS-2B-1B, and the outfield should be LF-CF-RF. (If a team brings in a fifth infielder in a late-inning situation, then the infield alignment should be designated 3B-SS-CF-2B-1B.)

    Thames is totally fooled by Castillo's changeup
