    LOL.. thousands of ABs equals over 6 seasons without major injury

    3+ seasons batting 2nd vs 3+ seasons not batting 2nd

    I know. That’s why I asked him to show his work. I’m truly curious as to why he’d say that. He’s a smart guy and I didn’t detect a hi to of sarcasm. I think he means it which is why I am questioning him, curious about the thought process.

    Dr. Dusty knew it was going to happen, he's seen it before.

    The record sale for a Denny Walling rookie card was $6,275. Ripley's believe it or not.

    Bagwell's 2nd worst OPS of his career happened in his 2nd season

    Walling had 3 ABs for the Astros that year

    So random

    can you explain the rule? Why did the Stros get punished for them dropping the ball?

    Protects the offense from a DP or even TP by not allowing the defense to let the ball drop on purpose.

    Automatic out because the fielder could let it drop and then throw out the baserunners who didn’t advance. So it’s an automatic out. Runners on 1st and 2nd, less than 2 outs I believe.
