BLACK, RIGNEY UNLOAD ON CARDINALS
The Giants put the game out of reach with a big 8th inning. Bill Rigney got the key hit, a bases-loaded that sent Leon Day to the showers. Joe Black: CG, 3Ks, 2 ER.

#1947League question:
In our alternate universe, Joe Black was a hero for the Giants today.
For what team did he most famously play in real life?

Today's #1947League hero, spitballer Bill Byrd, led his league in wins and innings pitched in 1948 -- his final major league season.
For which team did he play that year?

Yep! New-look Senators take 3 of 7 from the mighty Phillies.

Senators (12-48) beat Phillies (41-21), 9-0.
That's not just a shutout, that's a million-to-one-shot kind of deal.
So we get an extended performance from the Beautiful Shuffle Girls today. #1947League

I will be back on duty soon. Just a lot of work lately. But while we waiting for #1947League, let's celebrate pitchers and catchers reporting!

BROWNS WALK OFF TIGERS IN 13
Overmire matched Welmaker over 12 innings...but Skeeter Watkins broke through for St. Louis in the bottom of the 13th with a single that scored Marquez. Gibson hit his 23rd HR.

Browns walk off the Tigers in 13, tie Yanks for first.
Again.
And not a ghost runner in sight.

Very cool interview with the unstoppable #RogerDaltrey on #TheWho, complete with lots of insider stuff I had never heard... for a while there, he was the only non-addict in the band.
