Watching Quick Pitch, the teaser going to the commercial shows Jeets, mentions having the Yankee SS record, and that it's in serious jeaopardy! Find out who is challenging the record, after the break, she says.

Hmm, could it be their ****ing shortstop Gregarious?

I haven't complained about the Cards in a while..so I'm past due.

I'll be gentle. how much pathetic play in must win games is needed for mass be-headings?

TRIPLE ****ING DIGITS.

Only been caught stealing 4 times.

Four. One, two, three, four. That is it. ALL SEASON!

I could go on and on.

This is the hardest I've laughed at anything on 2+2.

If the Mariners miss like they almost certainly will (I expect one more painful push), then give me some TROUT.

I can't wait for the playoffs either. So many good teams... and I have 35-1 on Colorado and 80-1 on the D'Backs.

I'm on Team Arizona. Let's. Go.

Jesus, everyone hates baseball now? That's why I've always been predominantly **** football. That being said I slept through almost the entire slate of both sports so **** me right in the ass.

Bummed the Cards did the inverse of the Brewers last trip to Wrigley. We're already severely lacking in regular season drama.

GG cards. Fowler made it interesting today. Cubs need to handle business in Tampa Bay and then redeem themselves @ Wrigley north to close this out

You'll have my insightful and well informed takes. **** NFL, still in for college ball though.

I don't think they can. The schedules are already in place and I believe tickets will have gone on sale by then.

One 5-team 8-inning game at a neutral site. Each team faces each other team's pitching/defense for 2 innings. High score wins. Ties settled by n-1 extra innings between the n remaining teams, following the same format, for as long as needed.

I believe they go to 2p2 voting in the case of a 5-way tie

Votto doesn't have enough RBI to be a legit contender.

I have to assume next year they will make a change and do what the NFL does for tiebreakers just in case.

Grunching... How is the tiebreaker in case of a multi-way tie not simply run differential
