Yup I like it sky. Wish I didn't play cincy. That grand slam really hurt

Well yeah, but in most MLB games the winning team usually scores more runs in 1 inning that the loser scores the entire game. Big innings are what baseball is all about these days

You are absolutely right w/ that last statement. If it wasn't for the error, and the grand salami......Cincy could be winning this game 3-0 going into the Top 9th. But I am happy it didn't work out this way....=)

Skyla, you must be pretty old or have older people in your life. Your statement about the winning team will score more in one inning than the total for the game of the loser is something I think I first heard about 35 years ago from an old bookie. Funny thing it still runs pretty true even today but maybe not quite as much. It would be interesting to see some data on that but who or why would someone waste all that time on it to begin with. Just hadn't seen or heard anyone say that but me in such a long time it almost brought tears. Thanks for the uplift. Go Louie, took em early this morn.

Im 36 years old. You are right, it is an old saying and I heard it from a ex ball player and I do use it as part of my capping. I do check the stats on it throughout the season and if you just randomly pick a day during the season, at cbs sports or wherever, and look at all the games, you will see just how many games it is true for. More than people would think. The Yankees this year score in bunches in the 7th and 8th innings, usually cause of a big inning. Just kinda a fun fact. Very cool how you heard it 35 years ago like that. Some things just stand the test of time :)
