Ok, here's one for Chuck.
Last night the Braves and the Padres played a wild one. Atlanta had leads of 5-1, 8-5, 11-9, and 12-11, yet blew each of them. The Padres lead briefly at 9-8. Atlanta finally won it 15-12 in 11 innings.
Amazingly, Jorge Sosa, the Braves latest attempt at a closer, blew both the 11-9 and 12-11 leads in the 9th and 10th innings respectively.
Now since you like quirky baseball stats I thought that you might like to know that despite this he only gets one blown save. According to MLB it is not possible for the same pitcher to blow two saves in the same game!
The reason is that once he blows the first save opportunity he becomes the pitcher of record, and if his team retakes the lead, he is merely giving away his own win. You can't save your own win.
Of course, all the fans know that he blew it twice.
