a.reyes gets 2.11 run support, lowest in the majors. I guess they not only lose when he pitches, they also get blown out
Nice that Gary can step in and actually say something intelligent about what the dead ball and live ball eras were about, after Keith showed that he actually had no clue. Of course, they left out one of the biggest aspects of the dead ball era - that balls were kept in play after they were dirty and misshapen, making it much harder to hit. After Carl Mays killed Ray Chapman with a pitch on August 16, 1920, they started putting new balls in play when the old ball got damaged, which made it far easier to hit. This incident was also a big reason that the spitball was banned.
Steve Phillips can't stop talking about Gomez' "live body." He should probably mention that he is pimping him so hard because he was signed while Phillips was still the GM of the Mets.
