BruceH Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Anyone else do the "see games in as many ballparks as you can" thing? I've attended MLB games at: Tiger Stadium Comerica Park Wrigley Field Old Comiskey New Comiskey (or whatever it's called now) County stadium (saw McWire hit a homer there on his way to 70) Memorial Stadium (saw the 1979 playoffs and World Series) Cinergy Field Tropicana Field PNC Park I'm aiming to add the Jake to the list this summer. You the man! Come to SF sometime and see a game in Pacbell Park (or whatever they're calling it now.) The new ballpark downtown. It's right by the water; you'd love it!

Aggie87 Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 ...and the Rocket was going to retire?? 7-0, best start in the majors!!! Though he's got a ways to go to match his best start ever, 14-0 in 1986. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris olivarez Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 Tonight in the Dodgers-Cubs game Alex Cora had an 18 pitch at bat against Matt Clement. Clement is the type that might throw 18 pitches in three innings but Cora just kept fouling pitches off. I think Clement got to the point where he couldn't handle it anymore and maybe grooved one in there hoping that Cora would either put in play or strike out. Cora hit into the right field bullpen scoring himself and another team mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Clemens may be 7-0 but Piazza got some more revenge by denying him his eighth. Metsies are looking good, pulling another out of the hat tonight. Whoda thunk they'd only be one game under 500 at this point in the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrome Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 A couple of guesses: I believe it was Jack Morris who pitched an opening day no-hitter ... and maybe Mike Witt who did it on the last day of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrome Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Re the NBA connection ... I'm way more of a baseball fan than an NBA fan, but isn't Mike Bibby related to the pitcher Jim Bibby?

PHILLYQ Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 First game of the season no-no was Bob Feller, AKA Rapid Robert(This is also a good piece of trivia, as it's the only time in baseball history that a team ended a game with the same batting average as at the start of the game.) July 4th no-no was Dave Righetti in Yankee Stadium against the Bosox, now pitching coach for the Giants(He struck out Wade Boggs to end the game.)

BERIGAN Posted June 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2004 (edited) Â Â Â And no doubt if he wants to play next year, he will have to sign a minor league contract, and win a job again...amazing what he is doing at 46! And after acting like they were doing him a big damn favor letting him play for them in spring training(We need a young team here in Tampa Bay!) a complete lack of offense made them think a guy who is now just 8 short of 500 homers might not be such a bad idea after all....even if he is 40!

Makes you root a little harder for the old guys, doesn't it? They're now ALL ounger than me, but I root hard for the old codgers that are defying Father Time and enjoying a boy's game(The pay's pretty good, too.) I hope somebody brings back Rickey Henderson this year, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
