RIP Paul Splittorff. He was young, born 1946 (65?)

Ditto.

Saintbird, no surprise that you had to do the game thread 6+ hours before the game in order to get it in before him.

64 and-a half I believe. I loved those Royals-Yankees rivalries in the mid-to-late 70's and early 80's. The Royals were soooooooo close to beating the Yankees in the 1977 ALCS with Splittorff on the mound. One inning away !!!! That 1977 Royals team was probably one of the all-time great teams that didn't win the World Series (as was our beloved 1979 Orioles).

As soon as I saw "fielding error" on gamecast, I predicted it was Reynolds.

That was a dirty, underhanded trick ! :laughlol:

Should have been a hit IMO. Thorne and Flanny said as much.

I think he would have been safe even if the throw was perfect.

[callahan09]

Does Reynolds infuriate anyone else as much as he infuriates me?

[scOtt]

That was pretty close.

[OFFNY]

Pretty good pickoff move to first by Jake.

[PrivateO]

Way too many pitches for 4 batters.

22 and counting.

[Remember The Alomar]

Deep counts to every batter...again.
