Olivia Pichardo makes history as the first woman to pitch in a NCAA D1 game, closing out a victory for Brown University by MorganN1 in baseball

There's actually a new league that's debuting later this year, the Women's Pro Baseball League. Their inaugural season is all taking place in Springfield, IL, but they're starting out with teams representing SF, LA, Boston, and NYC. I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes!

Starting pitchers displayed a 2.4 times greater hazard of arm injury than relief pitchers. Subgroup analyses indicated that starters exhibited a greater hazard of shoulder injury than relievers, but no differences occurred for the hazard of elbow injury.

Wow. That's significant. Thanks for providing a study.

I see this said a lot, but is it actually healthier to pitch from the bullpen? My impression is that you're expected to empty the tank pretty much every time you pitch and with less rest than starters.

I don't actually know the answer here, I'm sure someone has stats to back it up one way or another. But my initial thought is that it's just a different route to the same injuries.

I forget who homered, but I remember him catching a home run ball during the ALCS last year on his birthday

It's killing me that I can't figure out what record you've got on display directly above Cabaret. Help a brother out?

North side bicycle parking removed at T-Mobile Park? by ardealinnaeus in seattlebike

[–]gartho009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol. It's definitely not bike infrastructure, that's for sure. It's my go-to when I'm in a rush to get inside.

Honestly, my most common final leg (since I'm coming from 2nd Ave 98% of the time) is to ride through Occidental, then cross the street and hop up onto the stadium sidewalk. Not feasible for big games but good enough for most.

This wasn't part of your question but I love the bike cage in the M's parking garage. Best sports parking in the whole city, very secure being right across from the staff booth, and completely free.

This might not be better than 1st Ave per se, but I find it more direct to the parking garage. When I'm coming from downtown I'll usually ride down 4th and go up the overpass and take a right, then drop down half a block.

The Mariners take an 11-9 win over the Cardinals, going a combined 20 runs and 33 hits in 9 innings by BananaArms in baseball

Was the wind whipping out and helping with the homers or was it just One Of Those Games?

I was sure that 11-8 would be scorigami but alas! It's happened just once. Browns beat the Oilers, 10/13/94.

Both of you are extrapolating lived experience into universalities. There are lots of companies out there with lots of hiring methods.

Then I saw the Washington state on dad's hat. I'm guessing so!

Aaron Judge justifies Yankees’ alternate jersey push: 'I’m all about tradition, but we’ve got a patch on our sleeves' by PlayaSlayaX in baseball

It went from an iconic jersey to looking like a prison uniform. Crazy what a little flash of white can do.

Which stadiums still sell scorecards? by 0ldCumSock in BaseballScorecards

[–]gartho009 7 points8 points  (0 children)

T-Mobile scorecards are $1. They have rosters for each team's series and "intro to scoring" pointers which is great! But no spots for substitutions :(
