"Tears of the Mariners."

I think I read a review of that. Thought it was one of those baseball stories like "Pride of the Yankees", you know? But it's just about some crabby old sailors, stuck in this little town.
Another great catch by Cain saves Kansas' bacon again!

Edit: I am a dumb Australian when it comes to American geography and keep forgetting KC is Missouri.

It's too bad a team never came back to win after squandering bases loaded with less than two outs.

That looked like way too easy a catch for Cain for where that ball actually fell.

Actually, children do not use the DH because the relative differences between pitcher and fielder hitting do not manifest themselves until the higher levels of the sport.

Well yeah the best pitcher is probably the best hitter on 90% of youth teams.

That is, without a doubt, the best and most concise argument I had heard in favor of the DH.

Infante is such a black hole in the lineup.

I mean, I could say that about like half of KC's lineup, but for some reason Infante annoys me.
