the "baseball only" thread

I can remember the early 60's, in particular 1962 when they lost 120 games. That won't happen again, I am sure. 😀

 

[K-Skate417]

I remember the Arizona Dickheads, as you call them, lost about 120 games last year.😀😛

 

[milagros317]

The Dickheads got to 111 losses, to finish 51-111, which was 42 games behind the NL West winning Dodgers. 😛

The Mets 120 losses in 1962 is the 20th century record.

In 1899, there was a team called the Cleveland Spiders in the NL, which went an unbelievable 20-134. 😱 😱

 

[K-Skate417]

Baseball will be on in 2 hours.

 

[milagros317]

The Dodger game doesn't start until 4:40pm.

 

[K-Skate417]

I only watch west coast games when no other games are on or when the Red Sox are on the west coast.😀

 

[milagros317]

I have tickets to 7 games in Dodger Stadium in June. 😀

 

[K-Skate417]

All the Fenway tickets for the Red Sox/ Yankees series throughout the year are sold out already.🙁

 

[milagros317]

Scalpers have bought up all the tickets to Mets/Yankees games here.

 

[ticklingfeet4fu]

I will be watching the Mets- Braves , Red Sox- Yankees , Royals- Tigers , Dodgers- D'Backs , Rockies- Giants. I will check out the other 8 games that I can and then I will watch the ESPN game tonight.

 

[milagros317]

TF4F watches a lot more baseball than I do. 😀

 

[K-Skate417]

I am excited for the Red Sox home opener tommorow

 

[milagros317]

K-S is happy that the Yankees are losing today. 😀

 

[K-Skate417]

Mils will be happy the next time he gets to see the hated jints lose.😀

 

[milagros317]

It was fun watching them lose to the Dodgers on Wednesday night. 😀

 

[K-Skate417]

TF4F must be happy that his Mets have a 4 run lead😀

 

[milagros317]

Especially since they haven't won this year yet. Hope they hold the lead and win for him. 😀

 

[K-Skate417]

The Mets actually won today.

 

[milagros317]

That should make TF4F happy. 😀
It was Pedro Martinez who pitched a complete game 2-hitter for them. 😀

 

[K-Skate417]

I knew it was Pedro pitching😀

 

[milagros317]

Former Dodger General Manager Fred Claire made one of the stupidest trades of the 20th century when he traded Pedro Martinez for Delino DeShields. 😱

 

[K-Skate417]

I will be back after the top of the 9th

 

[milagros317]

It is too tense for K-S to post with the tying run at the plate in the 9th inning. 😀

 

[K-Skate417]

The game is tied now and will hopefully go into extra innings.😀

 

[milagros317]

That was an impressive rally by the Red Sox in the 9th inning, scoring two to tie. 😀
