Just realized I only posted a game sheet 🤦‍♂️

@tabletopmania @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

I tried to read the names and make due. I think that I correctly interpreted Vander Meer as one of the pitchers, but I really question your putting in The Dalai Lama at shortstop. At his age he should be the DH.

@RuthODay @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7
The handwriting certainly leaves something to be desired.

The Royals lost catcher Darren Daulton for 5 days with concussion like symptoms after taking a foul ball off the mask. Manager Gene Mauch has called up Gilly Campbell.

Amish Assassins OF Reggie Jackson was suspended for 5 games after he was HBP and escalated a bench clearing incident. Tommy Lasorda has called up Ken Griffey Sr.

@tabletopmania @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

Winningest manager without a pennant or WS; hopefully Mauch can get his club turned around. Maybe the Campbell call-up is the catalyst.

@RuthODay @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7
The WLB Royals are in the weakest division. They're 2 games up on the Twins, so I hope they catch em.

Definitely one of the best games of the WLB season.

Tomorrow’s a big day! The WLB season will be on hold until the completion of the 2nd Annual Edward John Coyle Jr. Memorial Tournament! It will open up with the 1951 New York Giants taking on the 2006 Minnesota Twins…

I was with you till the last line, Yusuf. : )

@RuthODay @tabletopmania @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

Yeah, I'm predicting Tigers over the Twins in the final, sorry. That's an amazing club. And of course I bailed on the Twins as well in this tournament.

@YusufToropov @RuthODay @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7
99 Braves and 30 A’s were both in the finals last year. Early exits are predicted by you and Ruth.

Now you know why I don't bet actual money :-)

#1 Edward John Coyle Jr. Memorial Tournament
Willie Mays singles in Bobby Thompson in the bottom of the 11th as the ‘54 Giants walkoff the 2006 Twins in the opener!

@YusufToropov @RuthODay @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

Statistically speaking this was a big upset.
Johan Santana tossed 9 scoreless before giving away to Nathan in the 10th. Maglie went 10 shutout innings for the no-decision.

Fitting that Bobby Thompson gets another big hit on October 3rd.

Am I right in remembering this is also your late dad's birthday?

@YusufToropov @RuthODay @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

Yes it is. He would’ve been 72 today.

@YusufToropov @RuthODay @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7
Thanks. Took a half day at work and am about to head to this playoff game. I’ll post pictures.

@tabletopmania @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

Congratulations on breaking the streak, though I am quite miffed that they had to plunk my Alejandro Kirk to do it.

On the bright side, the D-Backs fried some brats in Milwaukee.

@YusufToropov @RuthODay @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

The Royals led 2-1 with 2 outs in the top of the 9th. With a runner on 3rd the Royals intentionally walked Musial to face Slaughter . Slaughter made them pay with a 2-run triple to give the ‘48 Cardinals the advantage. Brecheen unfortunately couldn’t seal the deal for the Cards.

@tabletopmania @RuthODay @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7

I didn't pick such an outcome, but I would certainly be OK with a '51 Dodgers/'51 Giants final, and I suspect Nolan would too...
