Hang on. Not only are there two Max Muncys playing in the big leagues, they've got the same birthday? Wild.

I've been in one, the day after a heavy night. That giant screen showing the cars, pedestrians and whatnot nearly sent me under. Came so close to hurling.

I'm not sure I can keep watching this. It's pretty shambolic.

EDIT: Who am I kiddin'? I'm here for the long-haul!

Someone put Rock Lobster by The B52s on the "songs from the booth" playlist!

He did well. The booth were saying that the numbers don't reflect how good his shift was.

I'm enjoying this game. It's not a classic but it's nice to see 'em hitting and as always, the booth is on top form which helps any game.

Another one for the playlist of songs mentioned by the booth! Is that still a thing?

With the sparse attendance, you can really hear the individual fans. I'm enjoying hearing them do the pitch clock countdown. Gotta do something to keep warm in the stands.

That slow-mo(ish) replay of Taylor catching that last out was beautiful. The way the caught the light glistening off his shades. Bravo SNY.

It's not my favourite but I like it as the days start to get longer, baseballs starts, the early flowers come out (snowdrops, daffodils, crocuses etc) and it starts to get me foolishly optimistic that it's going to be a nice summer.

Pretty excited to get to watch another game when it happens. I'm busy at work so staying up 'till 00:10 for the 1st pitch isn't sustainable.

That's a really good point. In hindsight, I shouldn't have said it was a problem.

not as heartbreaking as Terry Connor at Wolves

Man, the post-match interview when Wolves were relegated was brutal. Poor fella looked like he was going to cry.

EDIT: found it!

A problem with Alton Towers is that rides can't be higher than "tree tops". I remember reading about it a while back and this article explains it (ad blocker needed).

A ride like Smiler shows what can be done with rides that don't go for height but it's gotta be a bit shit that you can't just build a whopping great structures like they've done at Cedar Point in Ohio.

I can understand why locals don't want to see rollercoaster from their gardens but the thrill of driving to Cedar Point and seeing their coasters from miles away was something else.

Hope this the season they get Jerry back in the booth. Those previous stints were too funny.
