    Anyone can be a dumbass about it by not acknowledging there could be something extra going on at home. You're a prime candidate considering how much of a blind homer you are.

    Quick research says we've scored 3 runs or fewer in almost half (18 of 40) our home games. Two more games they had 3 after 9 innings. I'm being generous not including the many 4 runners.

    Don't be foolish by letting a few high-scoring games skew what's really going on.

    Frustrating game. Doesn't hurt as bad being up so much in the division but just hate giving games away.

    Well we have one of the better home records by wins and losses too

    But I'm sure that is flawed also

    And lol at the homer comment, just because I don't constantly see doom doesn't make me a homer lol

    Hoyt should pitch only if the game is out of hand. He is a run giver, kills team.

    Baseball is so slow to change. I have no doubt that baseball will go a computerized strike zone at some point. It'll take the Yankees getting screwed in the World Series for enough fuss to be raised to make the change.

    Nah, you're definitely a homer. That's why you jumped to the "doom" comment. It's not that serious.

    Also, your infinitely baseball-knowledged self should know pitching matters too... that might, possibly, maybe, could perhaps, be helping the home record.
