Intentional HBP

i didn't see the game. had warnings already been issued? if they HAD, then, yes, the pitcher and the skipper are done. if they hadn't been given earlier, then it's whoever angel wants to dump, which was the pitcher.

Both teams had hit each other earlier in the game, in the 2nd and 4th so they were even. In the seventh Minn. threw behind a Detroit batter. So Detroit retaliated in the 8th. That is why Young yelled at his pitcher who had started things up again in the 7th after both were even.

For all those who are disappointed in Mr Hernandez or his performance over the years. Mr. Hernandez has worked a LCS or WS every year but 2006 since 2000.

You know that those assignments are a rotation now, not merit assignments, right?

Every day this year, Newsday re-printed the Mets boxscore from 1969. One of them contained this item:

HBP: Seaver (by Gibson), Gibson (by Seaver)

Ahh the good old days. No warnings, no brawls, and both pitchers went 9, as usual.

That was the year that Seaver was literally taking the mantel of the game's best pitcher away from Gibson. Bob must not have liked that.

We had this neighbor/uncle guy, who said this to me as I was learning the game from him in the mid-60s: "There's a kid pitching at USC who's going to be in the Hall of Fame someday ... remember this name: Tom Seaver."
