George C Posted October 6, 2022 #73451 Share Posted October 6, 2022 54 minutes ago, Jimbo said: Both decisions were Weak. Do you think Pete Rose would have sat out the last game to protect a batting title? Not a chance! That's the difference between the game back then and now. Still can't believe the Mets Blew a 10 game lead. The last guy to hit 400 was Ted Williams on last day of the season he was at 400 and could have sat out, it was a double header I believe he got 6 hits . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always felt that the re-dos of those old shows just aren't as good as the originals. 13 minutes ago, Ocean Boy said: The only thing this show has in common with the old is taking place on a ship. The only thing I saw in common was the name and a ship that they didn't show much. We were basically waiting for Amazing Race. Love Boat was annoying background noise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years ago (before he even graduated high school), he met the owner and they got to talking about his love of hockey and how he wanted to be a sports reporter. The owner said to let him know when he graduated college, as he would be happy to have my cousin work for him. Over the summer, he finally got a job offer from them and now works in their marketing department. I have a cousin who works for the California Angels .He is an Accountant but he has the opportunity to travel with the team when they come to NY.

Wasn't cool for McNeil to take the title when sitting out the last game. Not Cool! He did not opt to sit out.The team Manager sat all the regulars out except Lindor and Canha.If it was up to McNeil he would have played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I meant by my comment was no matter how well the Mets finish, they only win division if someone else beats the Braves. They had their chance to do it themselves, and didnt. Good luck in Wildcard series.Braves will be resting their rotation The Braves did not look too good the past two days.If the rules had not changed this year the Braves and the Mets would have played a one game playoff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I credit Buck Showalter. Hopefully the Met's keep him around long enough to eventually win a World Series. His history is such that it's usually the year after he leaves that his team wins it all (1996 Yankees, 2001 Diamondbacks). Always the empire-builder but never the emperor. It's amazing that both teams had identical 101-61 records but the Braves had the tie breaker with 10-9 head-to-head competition. One game made all the difference, proof that the regular season matters and every game counts. I like that MLB finally instituted a tie-breaking rule rather than a one-game play-in, giving more significance to the regular season record. Gotta give credit to the Braves. They hung in all season and got hot when it counted. Now hopefully the players won't get rusty during the 6 days between games. Baseball players are creature of habits & like to play every day. Same goes for the Yankees, Astro's, Dodgers, etc. I believe that the Mets will have an advantage by only having today off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may never know the real truth. In post game interviews McNeil stated he wanted to play.Showalter did not refute that.When Jose Reyes won the batting title in 2011 he opted not to play the last game of the season and the NY Sportwriters and on air Sports show hosts blasted him for that decision and still do to this day.They would have done the same thing to McNeill.
