Friday May 20: Rays come to town

Imagine  the visiting team should try to push across as many runs as possible with runner @ second in extras.  If tied, home team has to bunt and get guy to third, no?  Seems to easy and in my heart of hearts, know it will never happen.

Won't have to worry about that this evening.

Thank you Bryan Baker. 

[Beysbol]

I'm outta here. Gonna play video games. Not watching this. 

[Riggodrill44]

Baker was baked.

Hyde is the master in losing.  Every move he guesses and prays.  He really knows every method how to lose.

Another reason to dislike the ghost runner extra inning rule.

In the old days, home teams that forced a game to extras enjoyed the good end of a weighted coin flip (just under 55%) for win expectancy, and a 65% to win going into their at bat if they held the visitors scoreless.

Now those numbers are almost exactly flipped.  Which is super weird to me.  Call me a purist, but I'm not a fan.

Nats outfielder Lane Thomas out at the plate trying for an inside the park home run and Washington wanted to challenge the play but could t because the replay system "isnt working in Milwaukee" tonight.
