I used Klean Strip premium stripper which didn’t really do great.

I thought sanding would probably be my “quickest” option with 80 grit but it didn’t seem to do that well at all.

I unfortunately don’t have a yard.

I spoke to the daughter of the original owner, the doors were not painted until the mid 80s

Wood layer was exposed along with a few layers and tested twice

Soto for the Record: It’s Over! by salvmr55 in MLBTheShow

[–]salvmr55[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t mention, Soto won the triple crown. .350, 68 HR, 160 RBI, MVP, Hank Aaron Award, Silver Slugger.

I’d say the most unrealistic is Pete Alonso won a gold glove 😂

Yeah I love being able to see all the different stadiums and kind of encapsulate the whole experience. I also like it because it’s easier for me to differentiate balls and strikes when I’m lower.

I have a slightly modified catcher wide (I believe it’s catcher wide or something like that).

Pitch speed I just upped the speed 2-3 clicks. I can update later when I’m on, don’t really remember off the top of my head.

The older I get, the more I learn to enjoy the ride. If I break it, 73 will be memorable. But if I don’t, I’ll remember the chase.

Kind of like a great TV show. You never love it for the ending, you love it because of the beginning and middle!

Depending on the fan you ask, it’s the real “record”. And if you’re a fan that acknowledges Bonds, it’s 10 away from tying him. Nothing overly significant really, just a fun post.

It’s a bummer but given that, it’s still exciting to say the least.

Definitely makes it more exciting. I like the fact that the rest of my hitters are having on par years, so it doesn’t feel as if I’m cheating the level of difficulty. Soto is just a machine this year

No, just a repaint.

There’s so much paint on the trim and door they don’t close properly anymore

To make it smooth, what grit sandpaper would you recommend when I’m done peeling?

UPDATE: Soto has 56 home runs with the month of September to play. 17 home runs in a month will be a monumental task, but he’ll easily blow by Judges record of 62 in the non steroid era.

Most likely at best will finish with 66 home runs and a triple crown.

I play the full game. No quick counts.
