Did my #Oakland #Athletics win last night? Is that really the most important question? I don't think so.

The real issue is, did my Oakland Athletics maintain their half-game lead over @YakyuNightOwl 's #Seattle #Mariners?

Yes. Yes, they did.

Do either of you two have a NL team as a backup?

MLB Rule 3.14159 says that you are allowed to have an opposite-league favourite team.

GIANTS SPLIT SERIES WITH TIGERS

Joe Black turned in a quality start. Ed Steele homered. New York, recently deprived of superstars, took its 2nd win in a row over Detroit. Maybe it's a clubhouse vibe thing.

Today's #1947League hero, Joe Black, is not in the Hall of Fame, but he teamed up with a future Hall of Famer, and future roommate, to lobby for pensions for NAL and NNL players.

Bloody socialists.

Name the famous ally Joe Black worked with on this cause.

YANKS SPLIT, NOW WITHIN A GAME OF BROWNS

Paige allows HRs from the big guys (Gibson, Heath--who went long twice); Browns otherwise inert. NY erupts for 13 hits.

The game featured two bench-clearing brawls.

So.... Jeff Heath of the Browns hit two home runs in a 9-3 loss. When a batter hits two dingers in one game, we put another star on the #1947League Wall of Fame. Who should be immortalized?

#1947league update:

Expect a pause for the next few days as we go on what they call a "holiday" here in Ireland. (I think we all know it's actually a "vacation," but I humor the locals about that.)

Games should resume this time next week.

See you then!

#1947League preview, and it's a doozy:

Phillies, a half game back, send Groundhog Thompson (8-3. 2.05) to the mound in search of a tie for first with Brooklyn.

Cardinals counter with "Mississippi" Lewis (7-7, 3.05, 128 Ks.*)

PHILS REGAIN TIE FOR FIRST

A 5th-inning unearned run (scored by Artie Wilson, of course) was the margin, as Groundhog Thompson picked up his 9th win.

Lewis K'd 14 (!) Phillies in a losing cause for Cardinals.

I'm not entirely sure, because apparently the upstate returns aren't in yet, but it looks very much as though the New York Mets defeated my beloved Oakland Athletics by a score of 17 to 6 last night.

Travesty of a game.

@tabletopmania @RuthODay @YakyuNightOwl @AlisonW_RedSox @swampudlian @BigEarl @ted_duffield @stlcolorbaseball @MiLBAnalysis @malinkey @cardboardkarl @scottdaniel @OhhJim @sullybaseball @samsilverstein @APBAreplay @aurelia @AlexanderRaine7

There's something about losing a 17-6 game that is significantly more depressing than losing a 17-0 game. Your offense actually delivered, but your pitching ought to be sent down to the minors.

@YusufToropov I feel your pain. How about the Giants losing two consecutive games in 11 innings to Detroit, blowing leads both times?

Yeah, that sucks too. Condolences.

#1947League preview:

The Pirates' Luis E. Tiant (8-5, 2.66) aims to even the four-game series with the Red Sox.

Bill Powell (6-6, 3.72) looking to take three out of four at Fenway -- and get a bit closer to the .500 mark that has eluded the Sox all season.

PIRATES' BULLPEN IMPLODES; SOX TAKE 3 OF 4 AT FENWAY

Handed a 3-2 lead, Leniel Hooker coughs up 4 runs in the 8th.

Galehouse gets the W. Williams: 2-4, R.

Pirates continue their long-running lost weekend. #1947league

PIT (35-32)3 12 1
BOS (29-38)6 9 0

@YusufToropov Maybe this series will be the start of a turn around for the Sox.

#1947League question:

Pittsburgh's starter in today's game would, in real life, throw out the ceremonial first pitch in a World Series game.

Name the city where he did that.

Not Atlanta or St. Louis. Multiple guesses ok.

The key to this one is knowing who started for Pittsburgh in #1947League today. (He got a no-decision.)

“Over? Nothing’s “over” until we decide it is!”

Three of the top MLB seven in batting average. Three of the top six in HR. Don’t you mind the Blue Jays. : )

PS BTW, that would be “misconception” that the race is over. : )

Probably my most favourite Blue Jays batting order since 1993 when Tony Fernandez, batting .300 as a Blue Jay, was sixth in the batting order.

High praise! Those early '90s Blue Jays teams were amazing.

So (note deft transition) were #Eurythmics. Been bingeing on them and on #AnnieLennox lately and came across this mini-documentary, which casts a new light on Sweet Dreams.
