I mean they were 5 years ago, sure. They seem to actually be legit, legit this year.

7/7 as well, but was not easy.

Probably better to ignore the count.

6/7.
Missed the last one because I didn't go with my gut and tried to guess what they'd ( NYTimes ) have in there.

The last 2 were difficult. The 98 mph slider or whatever it was and then that last pitch.

A friend made a good point--I wonder if the speed is spot on accurate on the video game. Of course, doing this outside with a baseball and varying size of batters is multiples harder.

Oh, for sure. I do think the speed is somewhat similar. Outside with shadows and everything else would be insane to deal with.

I missed the last pitch too. But it broke outside of the zone IMHO. One of those where supposedly a tiny piece of the plate was broken off.

Is that a big Ole Oxy sign in the outfield? Did they rename it to Sickler field?

Verlander will be a first ballot Hall of Famer but.....
The World Series seems to be his kryptonite. Guy is 0-6 in 8 WS starts.

I admit it. I never thought Dusty would win a World Series. Good for him.
Unfortunately he did it managing the Astros.

Judge to the Yankees at 360/9 years.
That puts their payroll, before they go out and add more pitching and maybe even Xander, at 202.
You could field 6 Royals teams with that. They could have their own division.
