Tedd_Not_Ed: Feb 16, 2014; 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.

Time to die.

Alternate Title: "The Tim McCarver Appreciation Station"

Today's Game

Today in Baseball History

1908 - Baseball's anthem, Take Me Out to the Ballgame, is introduced by Billy Murray and the Haydn Quartet. The song writing team of Albert Von Tilzer (music) and Jack Norworth (words), who created the immortal tune, had never seen a game at this point in time.
1911 - The World Series between the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Athletics is resumed after six days of rain, and Chief Bender beat Christy Mathewson 4-2 to give the A's 3-1 lead.
1972 - Hall of Famer Jackie Robinson dies of heart disease at age 53. Robinson had become the first black major league player of the 20th century with the 1947 Dodgers.
1987 - Kent Hrbek's grand slam highlighted a 15-hit barrage as the Minnesota Twins pound the St. Louis Cardinals 11-5 at the Metrodome to force the World Series to a seventh game.
1992 - The Toronto Blue Jays take baseball's championship outside the United States for the first time ever, beating the Atlanta Braves 4-3 in 11 innings in Game 6 of the World Series.
1996 - The Yankees lay claim to the last game in the history of Atlanta's Fulton County Stadium. The Yankees, who finish the postseason with an 8-0 road record, are helped by poor Atlanta outfield defense and some great plays from their own outfielders as Andy Pettitte outduels John Smoltz 1-0 in Game Five.
2006 - Seven months after negotiations began, the Players' Association and MLB officials announce a five-year collective bargaining agreement has been reached. The longest accord in baseball history, which will end in 2011, assures the game will have a span of 16 years without a work stoppage.
