I don’t know what Romine saw, but Biggio had time to smoke a cigarette between touching the plate and getting tagged...

This has me thinking about players that had decent careers, but one really exceptional season. REALLY exceptional. I’m hoping tat’s not what we’re seeing, but it just made me way nostalgic for some old names that would fit the bill. I don’t mean Brady Anderson. I know he hit 50 one year and never more than 21 before, nor 24 after. His OPS + the year he hit 50 was around 160, I think, but although you might not realize it, he had 4 other seasons that he posted up in the 130’s or so. I’m thinking more like guys who popped for a season that was, let’s say... at least 40 OPS+ points higher than any other season they ever had, and that they’d have to have at least an eight year career...I’m thinking Jim Gentile and Norm Cash, 1961. Joe Torre had that great .363 year, I think that was 170+ territory, but he had other seasons in the 130-145 range...So HE doesn’t count, either... Think, men. Think... Kaybli. Can you please move this post to the new thread I created for this subject? Done.

Oops. Pipps also replied about 10-12 minutes ago. Can you send that over there, too? I promise I won’t ask you to do windows... (:

We get a second out but a single here makes it a two run game when we led by 8.

This inning should be over at 8-3, but German has more work to do.

Good recovery by German. But once again the bullpen will have to carry the load.

Okay, time to put up another 8-10 runs. Romine gets it going.
