Tarik Skubal the Stud; O'Neil Cruz the Freak

[redbird1.2.3.4]

You know, Clark, there's something about you that comes across as a condensing (donkey)(pit). I gotta say.

The term is "condescending (donkey) (pit)." I gotta say.

Got me pinned on a typo! Oh no! My point still stands, (buzz).

Sunday's game in Murder City vs. Milwaukee saw 94 pitches from the Tigers' Tarik Skubal for his first MLB complete game. His 94th was clocked at 103 mph.

In Pittsburgh, Pirates CF'er O'Neil Cruz, fielding a ball in mid-CF, (over)threw home...nearly into the box seats. Then he came to bat and hit a Cruz missile that cleared the top row behind RF at PNC Park in 3.25 seconds, going 123 mph off the bat, before landing in the river. Good thing no fan tried to catch it or we'd have had another PNC Park fan casualty.

Milwaukee was playing in St Louis? Weird....

Well what do ya know. Starters can still be effective at 100 or more pitches, and complete games. Maybe baseball has discovered something here

Na…..

Who threw 100 pitches or more? Skubal threw 94

I'm guessing you haven't been to Detroit in the last 15 years. On the Memphis --> New York City spectrum of desirable U.S. urban spaces to live, Detroit is a country mile ahead of STL.

I'm still basking in long ago Detroit Red Wings star Marcel Dionne's description of Detroit that got him traded to L.A..

I was in St. Louis for 5 days in March, took MetroLink every day, and lost count of how many psycho nutcases were riding free because they had nowhere else to go.
