I just saw a commercial with Griffey Jr in it. My son and I were there this day. He was my sons favorite player.

1-1 after 1. I wonder if a game has ever gone as many as say three innings where it was 1-1 after 1, 2-2 after 2, and 3-3 after 3?
I’m reasonably sure it’s happened. It wouldn’t surprise me too much if the same sequence of numbers contunued for up to 9 innings or more of play.
Keep, I remember that game! The reason is I lost a pal who I bet 10 bucks that we would beat Philly. I was in montana so I could’nt watch it. Neither he or I knew who was starting.
After work we went to his house to watch highlights. When he saw it was Stuper who of course pitched a gem he was furious asserting that I KNEW he was the starter! He would never give me any action after that
Bike, I found that Card Fan site and can’t wait to check it out later
“I’m reasonably sure it’s happened. It wouldn’t surprise me too much if the same sequence of numbers contunued for up to 9 innings or more of play.”
I don’t think it could have gone too long 1TD. You look at the odds of scoring one run in an inning, and then have both teams do that and then inning after inning and it gets infintessimally small as you get past just a few innings.
Not only do you have to score exactly one run each inning, but it has to be in the first inning, then the second, third, etc. For both teams to do that after a couple of innings you are looking at extremely small odds – even less probable than the 2024 Cardinals winning the World Series. 🙂
With the thousands of games played, it has certainly happened after one inning quite a lot, and some after two. Once you get to about four innings I doubt it has ever occured.
I see Burly has factored in on all the runs. He is rounding into that kind of player. A couple years ago Noot looked like he was going to be like that. Not stand out skills, but always in the thick of it whenever something good is happening. It didn’t pan out for him though.
What I just learned on the FOX telecast: “The league batting average on pitches that are swung at and missed is .000.”
SABR has a research article about the two teams in history that scored in every inning. One of them was the Cardinals (not this year!). It ends with the probabilities for it to happen again.
Yeah, I’d say that would be stretching out the odds, Bikemike. But I’ll bet there’s been at least one game that’s been tied 9-9 in the 9th…Haha!
These Fox guys just won’t STFU! Non stop babble. It’s a TV game and we can SEE the action
I gotta mute this crap!
OH! ‘Tani!!!
It’s a very rare occasion that I ever disengage the mute lever when watching a baseball game. It doesn’t matter the network anymore. I can no longer withstand the unrelenting drivel.
FWIW, Waino is the color man (analyst) tonight. (Whoever the PBP man is, he is who made the comment I about the .000 average posted just above.)
This is not good news, IMO.
Masyn Winn's 7 HR over the last 30 games lead the Cardinals

I took a glance at Winn’s splits page and his BA for the last 28 days is .245, 30 points off his season avg. I wonder if they have him trying something a little different which also accounts for the power surge.
