Gibson pitched really well until that 7th inning. I blame this one on the offense. Need to score more than 3 runs against that Yankees lineup. Just didn't come through with guys on base.

I knew nothing of Snuffy Stirnweiss other than his awesome name before this tourney started. He had some great years in the 40s.The Argonaut wrote:I wish I had benched Nettles earlier in the season. Stirnweiss was a 2B who played very little third during his career, but no errors over the last two games with him at the hot corner. His bat and speed are much nicer than Nettles's.
Nice to see the Yankees bats come alive for the first time in a while.

I was looking at Stirnweiss' baseball reference page because I too know virtually nothing about him, and was surprised to see he led the AL in slugging percentage one year with a .476.

Yeah, you can't really hold Gibson responsible for giving up three runs to a lineup with Dimaggio, Ruth, Mantle, and Gehrig in the middle of it.Kaius wrote:Gibson pitched really well until that 7th inning.

I'm rooting for the Tigers simply because I want to destroy them myself.

So I was pasting the images of each teams' final stats in the OP for posterity and Jorge really wasn't kidding about putting insults directed at chud (and Argo) in his file names. I'm going back and looking at the old ones now. It's pretty amusing.

Trust me. You will not hate me more than I hate David Freese.

That would help. It's easier that way than manually typing in the numbers based on the screen shot.Kaius wrote:Well I'm not at home so I will have to upload and send it to you later if you need it in that form.
