I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Today in Baseball History
  • 1922 - The Americna League reinstates the Most Valuable Player award, last given in 1914, appointing a committee of one writer from each city. The trophy goes to George Sisler. The National League will pick up the idea two years later.
  • 1957 - Gail Harris is the last player to hit a home run as a New York Giant in a 9-5 win over the Pirates in the second game of a doubleheader. Ruben Gomez gains the last victory for the New York Giants.
  • 1982 - Playing against the Royals at Anaheim Stadium, outfielders Fred Lynn and Brian Downing crash through the left field fence while trying to catch a fly ball. Lynn makes the catch and it is ruled an out, the umpires reasoning that it is the same as if he had tumbled into the seats.
  • 1997 - Mike Piazza becomes the first Dodger, and the first player in 25 years, to hit a ball out of Dodger Stadium. Piazza's 478-foot drive off Colorado's Frank Castillo bounces off the left field pavilion roof. Pittsburgh's Willie Stargell was the only other player to hit a ball out of the stadium (in right field), accomplishing the feat in both 1969 and 1973.

It just dawned on me that there's still a good chance that this could be the last time Russell Martin plays a game in Pittsburgh.

My neighbor's kid just knocked on our door. We opened it, said hello, and he offered us tickets to tonight's Cardinals game.

So... I'm going to tonight's Cardinals game!

I have great neighbors, even if one of them is a Cubs fan. (And it was his kid who gave us the tickets!)

The Giants playoff hopes were hinged on Michael Morse playing left field all season, Angel Pagan playing center all season, Buster Posey having an MVP season, Hunter Pence having an MVP season, Brandon Crawford hitting righties, Joaquin Arias hitting lefties, Pablo Sandoval having his 2008 season again, Brandon Belt hitting over .360 in doubles and home ruins forever, Marco Scutaro, Ryan Vogelsong, and Tim Hudson defying the aging process, Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain returning to pre-2012 form, and that someone could pitch the ninth inning of a baseball game.

And somehow, their plan didn't work. :shrug:

Vogelsong's actually probably been the Giant's most consistent starter since before the All-Star break (unless you count Coors Field but you really shouldn't).
