Wow did you see the cloud that came off that first pitch to Gunnar??

RAMON

Now I will, which will lead me to think of Dennis Leary cuz they look alike

Booooo

I’ll take it if we end up having a 5-1 lead lol

UNREAL

Man, Cowser does seem to screw up throws way too often. Surprised he is so highly rated on savant

Almost turned that into a hit for us lol

DR was excited enough to post about it days ago:

If the statistical record is never closed, what more do you need? If we look at statistics as numerical records of historical events, they are always updated when we have more information. We never have ALL the information, but we include as much as we have to the best of our ability. That is what this is an example of, including the information to the best of our ability.

It is very much the same thing. The statistical record is never closed.

We don't actually have all the stats...ever.

I do want to see the wrongs of the past rectified. I don't believe that this is actually rectifying anything. At best, this is just making just our forever incomplete history a little more complete. That is a logical goal. You know that stats get corrected like all the effing time? Box scores get corrected, etc etc. And not just recent games, going back as far as can be proven. The statistical record is living and breathing thing that is constantly changing. It is, by virtue of how it was recorded for so very long, and by it's very nature, incomplete. If they find more stats that says that Ty Cobb is the batting average leader, then it reverts back to him. It's simple, and dare I say, logical.

What you are doing is telling me that something that I see as perfectly logical is actually based on emotion, simply because it does not agree with your opinion. At the very best, it's not a cool thing to do

No, it's not. Don't be an asshat.

Yep, and I find it logical to include "incomplete" stats because of the circumstances that forced them to be as such.

It makes a whole lot of sense to me, based on the logic that MLB has been officially recognizing 60-game seasons for multiple years now.

I mean, this is just nonsensical. I should've guessed this was why you (of all people) was starting this thread.

Good catch. MLB & BBref list the same slugging percentage, but the backing numbers vary, as does Seamheads. MLB: BBref: Seamheads:

MLB is recognizing negro league stats as official

Don't worry, I went through every single variation before I finally got it right

I dunno if I've had the opportunity to watch a game with Gregg Olson commentating before

Wild lol

Moooooooo
